Your next tattoo artist in the San Diego area.

About Me

I served my apprenticeship and started tattooing at a streetshop in downtown Madison Wisconsin in 1997-98. It was a great place to start, Madison is a college town so there is a lot of smaller tattoos to do, a perfect place to hone my skills. After five years of tattooing at the same shop I made the move to San Diego. We sold our cars, most of our stuff, bought a van, loaded up a small trailer and drove west, it was definitely a beverly hillbillys moment. Once arriving in San Diego I worked at a mostly custom tattoo shop. Besides Sailor Jerry and lettering I was tattooing mostly my own artwork, someone else's idea but my artwork. My tattooing style includes elements of the old school, neo american, japanese, mexican and lowbrow hotrod art. I really dig the american style of tattoos coming out of japan right now. Besides tattooing I enjoys spending his time with my wife Shawna and dog Spike, painting, and this beautiful california lifestyle. Tattooing out of a cool shop at the beach in So-Cal, does it get any better?
