I started tattooing in 1996. I got the chance to start at a shop here in Vernon almost right out of high school. My art scholarship took a back burner to tattooing. I was hooked, an instant love affair. I can't imagine doing anything else.
In 2003, I started with the Freedom Family. I enjoy all styles of tattooing; being pushed in different directions artistically is one of the best parts of my career. Inspiration is an easy find for me because there are so many talented tattooists in this industry. Tattooist's that still care about the standards of what they do, and perfecting their art. I am please to say that I am one of them, and will hold to that throughout my career. Continually wanting to supersede and learn where I am as an artist has always been a driving force for me.

My personal life "away from tattooing" is spent with my beautiful girls: my wife Nicole and my two daughters Alisha and Kaylin. Being a daddy is the best experience I could ask for. My girls are little fireballs, they keep us running and laughing. Apart from that I am a huge outdoor enthusiast with camping, hunting, fishing, quading and hiking to name a few. If I am not tattooing or hanging with my girls, I am usually doing one or more of the things listed above. Thanks for checking out my work.
