What inspired your most recent tattoo?

While sleeping one night with the window open, we had a curious skunk peeping in on us. The stink filled our bedroom and gave us extremely weird dreams. A week later I found a rad flash sheet that included a skunk holding a flower. I instantly fell in love and asked to have it tattooed on my lower leg. Blane Curtice at Grizzly Tattoo in North Portland did an amazing job!

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

It would say don't listen to society's opinions of individual expression or walk of life. Always stay positive, there are silver linings in every situation. Pain only lasts but a moment, and the scars are lessons to be worn with pride; through healing you become stronger and more resilient. Be patient, all good things come to those who work hard, are diligent and never give up. Human imperfection is a beautiful thing and should be embraced and celebrated.

What would you do with the $25,000?

My 5 yo son is special needs, and I would use a portion to make sure gets the best education and support to ensure his success in a world that ignores or excludes people with disabilities. I would also pay for my daughter's oral surgery. Her adult teeth are very misaligned and she needs surgery to have them pulled/fixed before she can start braces. If there's anything left over l'd take my kiddos to Disneyland for a week, and take a month off of work to ride my Harley chopper down the westcoast.
