Tattooing is not my job…

It is my life’s work.

As a contemporary neo-Japanese tattoo artist based in the vibrant city of Melbourne, Australia, tattooing is not just my profession, but my very essence. Every design I bring to life is a reflection of my passion and dedication to providing clients with unparalleled artistry and a truly unique tattoo experience that will be cherished for a lifetime.

Ever since I could hold a crayon, I have been drawing. Growing up in the South Island of Aotearoa as a bit of shy kid with an obsession with Lord of The Rings and old encyclopedias, the art room was my first port of call during my school years.

When I was a teen, I moved to beautiful Melbourne, Australia. I soon fell in love with tattooing after watching my dad get a japanese style sleeve. I was immediately hooked, and something inside me stirred and I understood it was my destiny to be a professional tattoo artist.

Many years on, I have established my style and prescence in the Australian tattoo community. I believe that it is an honor to be trusted with another persons body, and to put my artwork on someone is a gift in itself. Whether it is a coverup design, a sleeve, or small tattoo, I apply this philosophy to every piece that is entrusted with me.
