My canvas of skin is painted with my pain and shaded with growth. My heart shaped as art on my sleeve whispers resilience and peace.

I'm as lost as Alice and as mad as the hatter. My Wonderland sleeve is a mirror of my mind—curious, chaotic, fierce. I've been big, small, lost, and loud. Each twist, turn, and character reflects a piece of me: the fight, the fear, the wonder. Wonderland isn’t just a story—it’s survival, sass, and soul. I didn’t fall down the rabbit hole…I was born in it.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?If my ink could speak, it would whisper secrets and scream victories. It’d say, “She’s been through hell, danced with her demons, and still rose dripping in color.” It would laugh, cry, curse, and celebrate. Telling stories of survival, soul, and strength. My ink would say, “Look closer—this isn’t just art, it’s her soul.”
What would you do with the $25,000?I’d use the $25K first to finish filling in my canvas then help turning trauma into purpose and to help others heal. I'd launch my massage and tarot business focused on survivors of abuse, mental health battles, addiction, and cancer. I’ve survived it all—now I want to help guide others through their darkness with all I have. I believe that my gift is to be a healer and I'm finally ready to embrace that.
