Personal update
As some of you know, others have been able to tell. I’ve been dealing with back issues for a while now, and lately they’ve gotten a lot worse. It’s at the point where even standing or walking for extended period is a struggle. I’m pretty much wrapped up in braces like a mummy most of the time just trying to get through it.
After a lot of thought and working with doctors, trying injections and PT. I’m scheduled for back surgery on June 15.
●I will still be tattooing til then.●
But because of recovery time, I’ll be stepping away from tattooing for a bit—most likely through the rest of the Summer of 2026—so I can focus on healing and getting back to where I need to be.
This hasn’t been easy to deal with, especially having to pause something I care about so much. But I know it’s what I need to do right now.
I really appreciate everyone who’s been patient with me, checked in, or supported me—especially my clients. It means more than you probably realize.
I’ll keep you all updated as I go. Thanks!
