What inspired your most recent tattoo?

All of my tattoos tell an awesome story. My large piece is full of peonies… the peony on my chest was cross-pollinated and created by my great grandfather. However, my most recent is the greenery and hibiscus flowers on my side and stomach. When I went to Mexico, it was my first vacation after my accident and I was sporting my new ink, and I finally felt beautiful and confident again.when i saw the gorgeous plants i knew I needed to have it tattooed.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

It would say “I’m beautiful, confident, classy, and determined” 58 hours of work in 2 months 💪

What would you do with the $25,000?

It’s been a dream of mine to start a nonprofit for other burn survivors. I want others who have experienced this horrendous pain(emotional and physical)to have access to tattoos to help tell their story and take their lives back, just like I have.
