What inspired your most recent tattoo?

It is a portrait of my grandmothers face which raised me as my mother, I placed her face on my chest over my heart symbolizing my love for her.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

It would start off at the age of 16 getting my first daughters name tattooed over my right arm, to then adding on to the rest of my arm creating a mural of where I come from and my experiences showing the sky scrapers of NYC & the statue of liberty over my left shoulder along with US Army dog tags for my time in the Military. My right arm sleeve has a portrait of the different places I’ve visited around the world from Paris, Rome, greece and world wonders of those countries.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would place the winning earnings into a high yield savings trust fund/IRA for my youngest daughter that gains compound interest over time to set her up for her future.
