I was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska. Its my home and the place I love most. With that in mind, I knew at an early age working in an Art-based industry. I first got the opportunity to tattoo in flash-oriented street shop in 1997. At the time I was not sold that tattooing was my calling. Despite that feeling in combination with a rushed, half-assed education in tattooing... I fell in love with the people and culture. Three short years later my lovely partner Johnna and I decided to make the move. We started the first ALL CUSTOM tattoo shop in Omaha. May 15, 2000. Jason was interested in gettin' in on the ground floor and taking the risk with us (and thank god for that). So thats the story. Now I'm obsessed with becoming the best tattooer and shop owner I can be. Thanks to all of you who have worked with me on this road.
