I have been tattooing since the early 90’s when I bought my first machines from the back of a magazine . My first attempts were all friends and family who were all very supportive of my new interest. I have been an artist all my life and so it was easy to convince them that if they kept it simple I could do it. In ‘97 I was given the opportunity to apprentice in a Denver studio while attending the Colorado Institute of Art. Coinciding with my graduation I was offered an opportunity to begin my career at a new studio located in Las Vegas, NV… fresh from my apprenticeship & far from a professional I began my journey into the world of tattooing.
Always trying to improve and learn I took out to create my own environment. Along with my partner and friend ,Justin, we opened Bad Apple with a desire to grow and learn. I have been dedicated to the growth of the medium. I specialize in doing custom work and try to incorporate my style into even common designs to make each tattoo unique.
10 years in the game as a professional I have been published and acquired many awards. I have attended conventions from coast to coast and tattooed some really cool people, many who I consider friends today.
