What inspired your most recent tattoo?

A memorial for my parents who passed away and my son‘s father who passed away when he was 14

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

It would say I’ve been through some shit a lot of heartache and tragedy, some self imposed, some not and it says there’s there’s something beautiful that comes out of tragedy and it’s artwork in the form of ink on our bodies that we are proud to display

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pay off my student loans. I’m currently in school pursuing an addiction counseling degree. That’s really close to my heart. I struggled with addiction for years and as a result of that was incarcerated twice and so now I’m pursuing an education to help the next addict and I would get my teeth done obviously because due to addiction and incarceration they have suffered and then I would donate to an organization that has battling addiction as their mission!
