What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My most recent tattoo I got during Covid times. In March 2020, before the lockdown, my grandfather passed away and he was a huge part of my life. I chose to go with a photograph of me, him & my brother. The photo encompasses our relationship, how serious he could be and how goofy me and my brother were. I feel really connected to it and it feels like he’s always with me.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

Hopefully it’d be my grandfather telling me how much he’s proud of me. And my guitar telling me to pick it up again - and stop procrastinating and be inspired even during the hard times. 2025 has been a hard year for me and I like To remember how my grandfather lived through so many hard times. I tap Into his resilience and I use music as my outlet. When I forget, I always have a reminder on my arm :)

What would you do with the $25,000?

Honestly, what we all really want - pay off debts. Theres so many things I want To experience in life, due to debt and financial hardship, in my 29 years of life, I’ve only traveled outside of the country once & I was 5. I want to be able to experience new things, without debt, I feel Like I can Build my financial confidence and really start living life. I’d also like to give back - after eliminating debt. I’d give back to organizations, the ones I used To work for.
