My most recent tattoo is the magicians assistant from Beetlejuice. I love a good cult classic, anything that is campy and pop culture related. Movies are something that make me think of my dad and spending time with him as a child. He turned me into quite the cinema lover.

My ink definitely tells the world who I am as a human. I have a few memorial tattoos that are for family that have passed, so it honors them. I have some tattoos that I picked off the wall at tattoo shops around the country, just because I wanted a permanent souvenir and memory of that time and place. My ink tells the story of who I have been in the last ten years of my life. I can’t wait to the colorful old lady with many stories to tell, and ink on my body to show.

$25,000 would help me get out of debt, and stop living my life 2 weeks at a time. I’m a surgical nurse and having to do the job I do and still living paycheck to paycheck is insane. I would take time to go visit my family. I would financially catch up responsibly, and then would love to get a dream tattoo I’ve always wanted from an artist in the UK. Honestly, 25k would change my life, and it would give me a sense of peace and security I have not felt in years.
