What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My most recent..hmmm..my dad. I’ve always had difficulty connecting with people despite my profession. I lost my dad almost one year ago (May of ‘24) to brain cancer (🩶)- he was my person, my rock. He just understood me or atleast would try his best to. I have “And nothing else matters” to go along with Metallica being one of his all time favorite bands 🙂

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

Without being too cliche, my ink would say, I am a form of art and creativity on a women who wants the world to know, it is mf okay to be yourself!

What would you do with the $25,000?

25,000 is a good bit for sure! Not going to tell a pretty story just because that’s what’s expected. I would first & foremost take myself on a nice vacation! It is much needed! Loosing my dad also meant loosing trusted, supported child care. Not only did he raise me, he’s helped tremendously with the kids. Getting out is difficult. As any human should, time away or even just for yourself is needed! 🥺 (With that being said…btw, May is Mental Health Awareness month!
