What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My love for the Japanese culture. I’ve always had a love for Samurai for my will to keep fighting, and the Oni masks to show my inner strength, the dragon to seek good fortune and balance within my life, my koi to remind myself that I’m not one that goes with the current, I swim against adversity. As well as the 7 virtues of the bushido -Righteousness -Loyalty,-Honor- Respect -Honesty -Courage -Consistency. Tiger tattoo coming soon this May to symbolize the beauty in danger. 🐅

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

I’ve been through plenty of battles, my hands and body may be battered nonetheless I still push forward into the future. My love for nature and its power force within itself is enough to ground me on uneven terrain, and overcome the obstacles I must leap through to get to my destination. Though I have a beauty in me, there is also a beast that dwells within.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would treat my mother with $10,000 of it, she’s my rock, always have been and I’d like to pay her back for all the things she’s sacrificed for me growing up. I’d then use the rest for a down payment on my dream car! ❤️
