What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My most recent tattoo was to cover up a tribal that I thought was appropriate for me 20 years ago. I should have done more research into the design and meaning back then. I was 22years old and was simply getting the ink because I thought it looked cool but only to realize, as I dug into symbolism and my own heritage, the tribal was far from the authenticity that I yearn to display throughout my life. So now, I'm hoping to have an opportunity to course correct with the best of the best!

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

My ink would say, " I am the original man" "I am light, I am powerful and I am free to soar through the world, limitless and full of abundance within me." My ink would speak to my haitian/African heritage, continue honor my Mother, my children and speak of the history of existential Man. I'm a truth-seeker and want my art to speak to that. I love ink. I just wish I had gotten it right so here's to a huge opportunity to connect the real vision to who I am and who I aim to be

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would invest in real estate. God isn't making any more land so ownership of as many acres as possible is my dream to pass on to my 4 beautiful children. The financial freedom means everything to me and this would be a huge help in securing their future estate planning. I would also take my wife in an amazing trip to celebrate our 10th year anniversary coming up this Fall! She's one of the best things that ever happened to me and for me so we need to celebrate the success of our commitment!
