In 2023, she entered a well-known studio, began an apprenticeship, and within days was tattooing real clients.Despite two pregnancies back-to-back, she stayed fully committed tattooing until late stages and returning to work just weeks after giving birth. Her color realism work soon caught international attention at the Gods of Ink convention in Frankfurt.After parting ways with her first studio, she connected with renowned artists, received praise, and turned down a top-tier studio offer to maintain balance. Today, she continues to grow in a new space thriving as both artist and mother.
