Connect What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My most recent tattoo is my family’s crest on my stomach. Simply, my family inspired that. Specifically it is my mothers side of my family which I relate a lot more too (compared to my fathers family). To me my moms side is the ideal family, we stick together, we are there for each other, we have intense love for each other, but that also brings other intense emotions.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

If my ink could speak it would tell you about the puzzle that is my life. It would tell you the mountains I’ve climbed and the valleys I was stuck in. Id be proud if my ink could speak because I know they would do me justice in telling my story. Not all of my ink has a profound story, but all are equally important in telling MY story.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I assumed the $25,000 was for the tattoo, in that case I was going to do a back piece, something that represents my father and mother raising me even through their own hardships. If I don’t have to spend it on a tattoo, then I would pay off some of my parents debt.
