About Me

Hey y'all originally from Long Island where I spent my first 30 years. Have been a tattoo artist (RETIRED) since 1991, apprenticed at Peter TAT2 in NY under Erik Desmond where i learned the ins and outs of the tattoo world. Have had the great opportunity to work with many talented artists over the past 14 years and made the move to california in 2000 to work with my best friend Brad Schneider at Beachin'Tattoo in Encinitas Ca. (NOW 454 TATTOO!) Besides tattooing brad and i also started a flash co. called team schneider where we distributed our art to tattoo shops all over the world... but it got to be too much work and started taking away from our time at the shop... so now we have a distributer taking care of all the bs for us (KINGPIN TATTOO SUPPLY) ( www.liquidskin.com ) other than that and painting not much else goin' on. am a music freak and the king of useless trivia. And besides all that my life revolves around my dogs, Ben and Hollyand Honey who are jerks but life wouldn't be the same without them. My World Visitor Map!
