# About me

I was born in the backwoods of WV (no exageration), Grew up in Cleveland, OH. I played bass in a hardcore/metal band named ASCENSION... missed playing guitar too much so I gave up bass, got a new guitar and started CHIMAIRA... 2 CD's and a few tours later I decided to focus 100% on family... got sucked back into music like the mafia. started a more rock influenced band called SHENOAH... decided it wasn't heavy enough for me so I started YEARS OF FIRE.. I recently retired from the "band" thing to focus 110% on pushing myself to be the best tattoo artist I can be.

I've been drawing since I could hold a pencil. My mom is my biggest influence artistically and when i was little i used to sit there and watch her draw for hours... by far my best memories growing up. I love working in pencil and chalk pastels, but I've recently left my comfort zone and and have gotten into acrylics and water color.

I am an artist, but I'm not a "profound artist"... when I create something that I as well as other people like it makes me feel good and proud of myself... but there is a difference in pride and ego... I REALLY hate egotistical people and people who take themselves too seriously... we create art... not curing cancer

I have the most amazing son a father could ask for and the most amazing girlfriend a guy could ever hope for... They are my biggest inspiration and the reason I strive to be a better person... without them I'd be nothing.

I am a tattoo artist and I work at Empire Ink in Akron, Ohio. My favorite style is realism... COME GET INK!!!

In closing I'd like to say that I HATE emo kids with a passion, or any trendy fashionable scene kids for that matter. girlpants and "guyliner" have no place in society.. I also HATE white thugs
