Connect What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My most recent tattoo was for the song The Grand Optimist by City and Colour. I got it at the shop next to the 27 club after seeing blink-182 in concert for the first time it’s definitely a tribute to my dad and all of the things that he has endured. Edit:peach tattoo is my actual newest for another song “peaches by grandson and k. Flay” who are both incredible. It’s a tribute to my story And a reminder to bring my people up with me.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

I got my trilobite tattoo because it is the Ohio state fossil. Fossils were a passion of mine growing up, a piece of my beginning. The fierce tattoo is a tribute to a close friend of mine and high school that committed suicide. The diamond tattoo is for Lady Gagas song Diamond Heart. The burning rose is from when I burned the pages of a journal, and as the paper burned, it looked like a rose. The squid tattoo was my daughters first Halloween costume she picked out on her own.

What would you do with the $25,000?

A goal of mine is to open my own business. I’m a general manager of a successful store, but our close location had to close due to rent costs. I’m still currently employed with this amazing company that brings me joy, but I want to do more eventually.. and I can. I want to use the money to further my education in business with the goal of opening my own mental health organization that provides resources and skills to managers and their teams.
