I am a Chicago born and raised tattoo artist who thrives on artistic progression. Art has always been my passion yet the canvas painting, sketching and graffiti that I loved so much was always just a hobby. I eventually fell victim to the lure of tattooing. In 2006 I began my journey of becoming a tattoo artist. I took a formal apprenticeship under Anthony 2Tone Rivera and began my career tattooing at different shops in the Chicago area. 

 

I am now a co-owner of ILL State Ink in the Avondale neighborhood of Chicago.

I am proud to say that my passion is now my life's work. I love my job. I approach every tattoo with the intention of creating something unique and beautiful that will stand the test of time. 

 

Stop by ILL State Ink today. I look forward to working with you and hearing your ideas. Let's create something together.
