I was born on the East Coast and I earned my BFA degree in 2008. From there, I took a road trip across the country and ended up in lovely Portland, Oregon. I learned to tattoo from Joe Newsom at Skin City in Tigard. 

 

After 12 years at Skin City, I opened Wildwood Tattoos in NW Portland in 2020. I loved my little shop and my clients, who became family over the years! The east coast was calling me home though, so I just took another big huge road trip back. Now Wildwood Tattoos is located on Main Street in Machester, CT.
