Mikhail Krubitsky

The reference pic I sent you is a Cherub, a nod to my last name. I wanted a tattoo for a while but life kept getting in the way.

What inspired your most recent tattoo?

I got my dad’s signature tattooed on my wrist, same spot he had his. He passed when I was 12, but this keeps his presence close. It’s a daily reminder of where I come from and the values he left behind.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

Each tattoo tells a part of my story. My dad’s signature reminds me I carry his legacy, not just his loss. I have 'Family' in Mandarin and 'Me and you against the world' which symbolizes my marriage those close to me. And 'What do you desire?' in Italian, which keeps me focused on what really matters. Together, they show who I am and who I’m becoming.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I owe my wife a push present and we never had a honeymoon when we got married 3 years ago. While I’ve been in school, she has held me and our little family down and I know I owe her much more but this is the least of what I can give for now.
