What inspired your most recent tattoo?

I recently got henna style flowers on my left hand. I really love henna style tattoos. I think it is a beautiful and creative art form with so many different designs and I wanted to display that on my body.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

Most of the tattoos on my arms signify life and death. Our lives are short even for those of us that make it into our elder years. So live your life, be unique and live your life with purpose. We all have regrets but instead of dwelling on those regrets focus on how to move forward and not repeat previous mistakes.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pay off the rest of my debt with some of the money and I would also give my parents a large portion. I decided in my mid 30s to change careers and start an apprenticeship as a mechanical insulator and my parents allowed me to move in so that way I would be able to afford to do so. They did not ask for anything in return from me however, I think it would only be fair to pay it forward to them.
