My journey into tattooing began over a decade ago, driven by a deep passion for art and self-expression. Completely self-taught in both traditional mediums and tattooing, I developed a love for realism—whether black and grey, full colour, or my own signature style, Displaced Realism.

For me, tattooing is a collaborative process; the connection with people is what brings each piece to life.

Outside of the studio, I find inspiration through family, travel, and painting—each one grounding me and shaping my creative path.

This craft has become more than a career—it’s a lifelong obsession.

With a love for fine detail and storytelling through ink, I’ve been honoured to win multiple awards at tattoo conventions and work as a guest artist in prestigious studios across the UK and Europe.Each piece I create is rooted in emotion and built on trust. My style continues to evolve, but the goal remains the same: to create lasting, meaningful art for those who wear it. I was made for this.
