Tattoos are an expression but an expression of what? Tattoos express the state of my soul and my tats tell the story of my transformation.

Great question, my most recent tattoo is a jaguar on my left leg. This tattoo is inspired by my internal awakening, and An ode to my courageous and fierce side, a side of me I’ve suppressed and lost contact with due to certain childhood traumas which at one point really stifled my confidence. Having gone through some recent spiritual battles and healings I feel as though I have been able to reconnect with this side of me.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?Wow, I like this question, if my tats could speak it would say how a broken boy has found parts of himself through facing his fears embracing adversity while also discovering his faith in God and himself. My tats would also say how much I value my family and new found identity. But I think the overall message would be is that I’m human and I have learned and still learning how to love myself.
What would you do with the $25,000?Honestly, I would use about half of the $25000 to get out of debt and build my credit score to build a solid financial foundation for my children and I. The other half I would use to fund my athletic wear clothing brand. This would be a great leg up for me and my folks.
