How’d you become a tattoo guy? - I’ve always drawn, since I was little. So I guess it was just a natural progression. Also I’m awful at math, so I was never gonna be a doctor
Highlight of your career so far: The time I was flown to England to do a full back-piece on Patrick Stewart. I love Star Trek.
What would you do if you weren’t tattooing? For five years I was a wizard apprentice under Chris Angel, I decided at the time to take a path outside of magic, but I suppose I could always return to that. Also now that crowdfunding is a thing I guess I could get back into dare-based competitive eating. What a time to be alive…
