My latest tattoo is Christ’s eyes looking upward with a crown of thorns, symbolizing resilience, purpose, and trust in the journey. The compass and Roman numerals reflect direction and the passing of time—reminders to stay grounded, guided, and present through life’s trials. It’s a tribute to faith in something bigger, and to always looking forward with strength and clarity.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?“Every mark is a memory, a message, a map.” My ink speaks a deeper language—one of purpose, resilience, and connection. It honors my autistic brother and the quiet strength we share. Each piece reflects my evolution, a tribute to the divine presence that guides me, even when unseen. My tattoos are living art—etched reminders of where I’ve been, who I am, and the unshakable force that pushes me forward.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I won the $25K, I’d book a once-in-a-lifetime tattoo with Bang Bang—an artist I’ve always admired. I’d also set aside a portion as a future tattoo fund for my newborn son. One day, I want to share this journey with him—showing how meaningful, high-quality tattoos are more than art; they’re legacy. This experience would be a powerful way to pass down my passion and the stories inked into who I am.
