2019-2025 (I’m a little late on this)
6 years of tattooing in the books. It’s insane to even think about. So many moments flash in front of my eyes when I think of the journey it took to even get to this point. The highest highs and the lowest of lows. Tattooing has been the most stressful relationship I’ve ever had with anything. But would I trade it for anything else? Absolutely not. It has shaped my life and introduced me to some of the most incredible people I’ve ever met. This has given me the most memorable experiences and taken me places that I never knew I’d be able to go more times than I can count. The lows will always be the lows that’s just life. But the friends I’ve made, the clients I laugh with every day. The shopmates, relationships and places this beautiful, stressful, rewarding career has given me. Giving up has never been an option.
It’s so easy to take it all for granted, to hyper focus on the bad. To ignore the progress you’ve made and compare yourself to everyone around you. But taking this step back and thinking “wow it’s really been 6 years and I’ve come this far”. I can’t wait to see what this post looks like in 6 more.
So to the friends I’ve made, the clientele that makes my day every single day. The shopmates, shops and guest spots. Conventions and everything in between. Thank you all for giving me this opportunity. I love it and you all with all of my heart. ♥️
