I have a few meaningful tattoos but most of them are just fun ways to express myself. I’ve never been one to care what others think of me.

Learn MoreMy most recent tattoo was my shin. It is a bunch of flowers to fill the space between my other pieces on my leg. I told my artist that I love florals and let him decide how to work that in. I let my artist design the whole piece with original ideas.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?We are her scars and her salvation. We speak when she can’t. We are her truth— in color, in pain, in power. We are her story, carved in skin.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I were to win the $25,000 I would first book a trip for my family. We are planning on going to Mexico for my parent’s 20th wedding anniversary, I would love to be able to pay for my family to go. I would also of course get more tattoos. I’d take a chunk of the money to donate to local humane societies in the Milwaukee area. I’d love to be able to invest some more money into my baking business as well!
