I have been making art ever since I can remember. I did my first handpoked tattoos in high school (circa 2008) and re-visited the practice in 2019 (with a lot more life experience and intention this time around!). I’ve been tattooing full time for 2.5 years and currently work in a private studio (Twinkle Ranch) with my sweet friend Jenna.

Before tattooing, I waited tables/bartended for 5 years and managed eviction prevention & affordable housing programs for 8 years. I’m really enjoying pursuing creative work now while still getting to work directly with people. I also volunteer with Festival Beach Food Forest- an edible, permaculture forest garden right in the middle of Austin. The community I’ve found there is so loving and welcoming! You can come volunteer with us or pick some fruit or attend a plant walk and learn about all the medicinals! The Food Forest is fenceless & open to all, all the time.

Outside of tattooing, I like to dabble in other crafty hobbies like embroidery, painting, macrame, and collage. I also love birdwatching, backpacking, camping, immersing in bodies of water, lizarding in the sun, gardening, cooking, seeing live music and doing all of the above with my cute buddies.

I look forward to continuing to improve my practice both technically and in the experience you have in our space. I treasure the time spent with each of you and bringing each piece to life on your skin!

LOVE Y’ALL, HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON~
