Tattooing was a longtime dream of mine, and i’m glad I got to make it happen. The tattoo journey didn’t just help me learn and grow my skill as an artist, it taught me valuable lessons in marketing and entrepreneurship that can only be learned through experience. I learned to manage and balance the workload of being a marketer, artist, and account manager all in one. Through this time I learned how to target a market, grow an adapt to current market trends. My apprenticeship and tattoo career allowed me to meet a lot of cool people and hear a lot of stories. I’m grateful for it all.
