I've been a professional tattooist since 2004, and a freelance illustrator/graphic designer since 1997. I currently live in Ottawa, Ontario. Canada's Capital. I have been there since 2003, and started my tattooing carreer there.

 I went to school for graphic design at Fanshawe College, in London Ontario. Worked in the field for a year and a half before I figured out that sitting in front of a computer following corporate identity guidelines was not my thing.

 I quit graphic design and was inspired by my first tattoo artist that did work on me, Anthony Veilleux http://www.allvisual.ca/ of True Love Tattoo in London Ontario to get into the field after he told me his story of his past and how much he loved tattooing since he started it.

 I picked up some equipment around 2002, read all I could about tattooing, and started annoying many tattoo artists for help and inspiration until i got to where I am now...
