Having a creative outlet has always been something I have made priority throughout my life. Whether it be drawing, painting, or just chalk on the sidewalk; my imagination was always getting a workout. As I got older my passion only grew stronger but it was hard to maneuver which field of artistry to settle on. A career in the tattoo industry was always something I kept as a daydream but I was never sure on how to approach it. I knew in my heart I would end up doing my art for a living, I just didn’t know how to get there. Despite working a retail job full time I spent years sharing art online, doing markets, and selling prints on Etsy on the side. Doing my artwork on the side was only scratching the surface and I was craving to take on more. I found myself constantly coming back to the idea of becoming a tattoo artist, and quickly became infatuated with the industry.
In 2022 I made the move to Kelowna from the Kootenays and am ever so grateful for where it has led me. My gratitude for Leslie is beyond words for her kindness, guidance and everything in between. I truly feel like I hit the jackpot by being welcomed in this shop. To friends and family that supported and encouraged me every step of the way, thank you for my daydream is now a reality.
