What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My most recent tattoo, a collection of bees and flowers on my rib cage, represents the beauty and power of pollination. Honey bees are vital to life as we know it, and I wanted to showcase their role as nature’s quiet workers. The sunflower, with its many uses, symbolizes sustenance and purpose, while the rose represents beauty, love, and the delicate balance of life. Each element speaks to the interconnectedness of nature and the importance of protecting it.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

If my ink could speak, it would tell stories of resilience and connection to nature. The bees would hum of life’s delicate balance, reminding us of the unseen work that sustains us. The flowers would bloom with joy and love, while the bear claw would growl a reminder to respect the wild and face challenges head-on. My ink is a living, breathing reflection of my life’s purpose—protecting the earth, sharing its stories, and inspiring others to do the same.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With the $25,000, I would use it as a down payment for a home where my partner, our newborn Juniper, due in and my 8-year-old daughter Savannah could grow together. Much like bees nurturing flowers, I want to cultivate a space where our children can blossom, surrounded by love, stability, and the warmth of a true home. It would be a foundation for the future, where memories are made, dreams are nurtured, and our family can truly thrive.
