📍Lausanne, Switzerland


Since childhood, I’ve always loved drawing, but never dared to consider it as a career, limited by self-doubt and beliefs that art wasn’t a “serious” path. Through sessions with a psychologist, I realized that artistic expression was essential to my fulfillment. Tattooing quickly became the obvious choice. I began drawing daily after work until I reached a level that allowed me to take the leap. Self-taught, I learned to tattoo on my own, with passion and persistence. After two years of practice, I opened my own private studio in Lausanne. This calm, intimate space is appreciated for its welcoming atmosphere, where clients feel free to be themselves. Today, I’ve never felt more aligned and alive than when I’m tattooing.


My Blackwork style stems from my deep attraction to black ink, which expresses a kind of intensity and depth, like a silent form of poetry. I explore a wide range of subjects: flowers, animals, skulls, often with a japanese touch… Each piece weaves a story, a symbol. To me, a tattoo is more than just a drawing, it’s a part of oneself, a moment suspended in time. In five years of practice, I’ve had the honor of being featured four times in Tatouage Magazine and Tattoo Life Magazine. These recognitions continue to fuel my passion and deepen my desire to create sincere, imaginative works shaped by heart, soul, and artistic freedom.
