Gratitude for the Journey
I want to sincerely thank everyone who has been a part of my tattoo journey. From clients near and far who continue to support me no matter what, to new clients, family, and friends—your belief in me means the world. A huge thank you to those who, even before I completed my apprenticeship (yes, I remember!), took a chance and got a tattoo from me. To every walk-in who lives far away and may never cross paths with me again, thank you for trusting me with your ideas.
To my husband, who offered up his skin to be my canvas—thank you for being my first supporter and biggest cheerleader. I am deeply blessed and beyond grateful for all of you.
