MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST

I'm a tattoo artist at White Fox Tattoo in St. Petersburg, Florida. I've been tattooing professionally for the past five years, but I've been creating art for as long as I can remember. I’m a Florida native that grew up in Tampa.

While tattooing is my main artistic focus, I also love creating artwork outside of the studio, especially pet portraits. Because I’m such an animal lover, there's something really special about capturing the personality of a beloved pet in a piece of art. I'm honored to be able to contribute a custom pet portrait to support the important work being done through this event.

MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST

My story started my senior year of high school when I took my first photography class. Little did I know, that photography class was going to change my life! That year was when my passion & business really began, and I would have never guessed that over a decade later, this is where I would be!

Now, I get to take my love of beauty, makeup, & fashion, and create unforgettable, once in a lifetime experiences for my big hearted clients!

But besides a photographer, makeup artist, and stylist, there's a whole lot more that makes me, me!
