years ago I found an artist I trusted. Her ink became my canvas—some pieces hold deep meaning, others pure flair, each with a story.

My most recent tattoo is a leg sleeve of a warrior goddess (me) emerging from a tiger—symbolizing breaking free from who I thought I was supposed to be and becoming who I truly am. It includes sacred geometry and my favorite flower, peonies. I also have “PERSPECTIVE” in a digital script on my forearm as a reminder that everything shifts based on how you choose to see it.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?If my ink could speak, it would say: “You are power, transformation, and truth. You’ve broken free, claimed your identity, and wear your story with pride. Keep evolving, stay wild, and never forget—your perspective shapes your reality.”
What would you do with the $25,000?If I won the $25,000, I’d invest it to grow Sacred Manes Beauty—expanding our low‑toxin space, offering education, and elevating client experiences. I’d travel for inspiration, connect with fellow artists, and give back through healing‑focused beauty. And I’d pour some back into myself—trusting the universe to guide how I level up my life, nurturing my growth, well‑being, and vision.
