We DO NOT offer piercings. ✦ About Me ✦
Hi, I’m an apprentice tattoo artist on the cusp of graduating — I began my journey in October 2024, and started working on real skin in February 2025. My goal with every tattoo is to create something meaningful that helps my clients feel more like their true selves — confident, seen, and celebrated. Before stepping into the tattoo world, I s

pent a decade (2014–2024) as a small business owner on Etsy, designing knitting patterns and handmade notions for the fiber arts community. Knitting and crochet are still a sacred part of my life — slow, tactile, comforting, and deeply creative. That meditative connection to making carries into my tattooing: the care, the intention, the story held in every stitch… or line. I’m especially drawn to tattoos that feel a little dark, a little ethereal, and deeply personal. My influences span everything from the whimsical gloom of Tim Burton, to the delicate detail of Beatrix Potter and Victorian children’s books, to the bold roots of historical and traditional tattooing around the world. I studied Fine Arts at community college and earned my associate degree before ever picking up a machine — though now, the buzz of a tattoo machine might be one of my favorite sounds in the world. Much of my art — and my life — is rooted in reclaiming joy. I grew up trying to be the “good girl,” always in service to others, and spent years unlearning guilt around doing things just for me. Now, I see my work as a way to help others do the same — to mark their skin with something that feels like theirs, not for anyone else’s approval. I live tucked among yarn, coffee, dried herbs, gemstones, and black nail polish. I love autumn, cemeteries, trivia, and creatures of all kinds — especially the ones who don’t mind a little silence. I'm a mom of two, a wife, and someone slowly learning to let others in. Art, nature, and animals have always felt like home to me — and I’m honored every time someone trusts me to leave a little piece of that home on their skin.
