What inspired your most recent tattoo?

I was inspired by a major turning point in my life learning to let go of the past and embrace growth. The design symbolizes resilience and transformation, with elements drawn to speak of my personal evolution.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

My body is a canvas that tells the story of my life—where I grew up, the places I’ve lived, and the hardships I’ve overcome in a journey of survival. I think as humans we have always wanted to draw the story of our life’s. Egypts did carvings on walls, Cave men in caves, & Indians as well. I have chosen to do it with tattoos.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use the $25,000 to pay my car loan off & get more tattoos to continue to tell the story of my life.
