I was born and raised in New Orleans Louisiana. It was there, in that city, rich in diversity and culture where my love for art, music, and subculture was born. My youth was spent immersed in the punk and hardcore music scene as well as skateboarding and art. It was during those formative years when I discovered my love for tattoos. In 2,000, i began this challenging yet rewarding journey through life as a tattooist. In 2003, myself and family moved to Austin TX where we have made a wonderful life in a wonderful city. I plan on tattooing until I’m “done”; until someone taps me on the shoulder and says “OK, that’s enough, old man.”
