I began tattooing in 2010 on myself, started small just tattooing my close friends. I was working in two restaurants at the time, I decided to leave both my jobs to start tattooing full time. I moved around the Isle of Wight a lot at the beginning of my career. But eventually found my feet in two well known tattoo establishments. 

I have been tattooing for 15 years now and I have tattooed all over the country at many tattoo conventions. My focus at the beginning of my career was Neo-Traditional but I slowly started to drift into realism. Colour Realism is my strong point and my favourite style to tattoo, but I really enjoy dark Black and Grey realism. Years have passed and I decided on May 2023 I wanted to open my own place to carry on my passion for tattooing. Took me 2 months of hard work to build Fallen Empire Tattoo, my new place of work. Based on the High street, Newport, Isle of Wight. This is where I currently reside.
