I have been tattooing for a little over three years now. After beginning in the industry here in Ames, I moved to Des Moines to work alongside my good friend and mentor, Joshua Bowers.

After a year and a half I realized that I no longer wanted to tattoo people who "just want a tattoo real bad, what do you have?" and wanted to focus on more elaborate pieces for clientele who have the patience to let me design something...a little more elaborate.

I moved to Ames and built Inkblot Studio, a home-based studio which is State-Licensed and Inspected. I take on clients on a consultation basis and my work is all custom.

I don't think I'm the bees-knees yet, but I'm pretty happy with where I am for my three years...

If you are near central Iowa and are interested in a tattoo, or just to chat, drop me a line.
