• I specialize in black and gray illustrative tattooing with a focus on high contrast textural elements.

    Some of my other favorite styles to tattoo include fine line illustrative, woodcut, microrealism, and western traditional.

  • As of May 2026 I will be located at Sleepwalker Tattoo in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

  • I am $150/hr for custom tattoos on the arms and legs and $175/hr for torso. more information can be found on the policies page under “payment”

  • A lot of the work i do is whimsical, absurd, or surrealist. I also do organix subject matter tattoos such as animals and plants. Most subject matter is considered equally.

    I do not tattoo subject matter that is racist, homophobic, transphobic, nativist, patriotic, or hateful. I do not copy or reference AI generated imagery either.

  • 1-2 weeks before your appointment, moisturize the area getting tattooed regularly with lotion. 

    The night before your tattoo, be sure to get a good night’s sleep and hydrate. 

    Take a shower the same day of your appointment and eat a good meal within 2 hours of your appointment start time, wear comfortable clothing that allows me to access the area getting tattooed, and feel free to bring snacks and a sugary drink to help maintain your blood sugar during the tattoo.

  • Ideally, I work either Tuesday-Saturday or Monday & then Wednesday-Saturday. I nearly always take Sundays off. I can make an exception if its something I really want to do!

    I also typically start my early appointments around 11am or 12pm and my afternoon appointments at 3pm or 4pm. If you need an evening appointment after 5pm it will be either on a Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.
