Born with a pencil in hand and an unquenchable passion for art, I’ve always seen the world through a creative lens. My love for tattooing ignited at just 16, when I began honing my skills as a self-taught artist, guided by invaluable mentors who helped shape my technique and vision.
By 19, my talent caught the eye of scouts, landing me a full-time role in the vibrant tattoo scene of downtown Pismo Beach. There, I specialized in black and grey realism—bringing lifelike portraits and depth to skin while mastering a variety of lettering styles, from bold lettering to elegant customs.
After years of building a loyal following and refining my craft, I followed my entrepreneurial dream and opened Royal Sword Tattoo & Piercing at age 24. Today, I’m proud to own and operate this welcoming space in the Central Coast, where we focus on premium custom artwork in a clean, professional environment.
Outside of tattooing—or whenever I’m not in the shop—my passion for art keeps flowing through oil painting. Working on canvas allows me to explore larger scales, richer textures, and deeper color stories that complement the precision of tattoo work. It’s my way to recharge, experiment, and stay inspired.
For me, tattooing is more than art—it’s about turning your personal stories, ideas, and emotions into timeless pieces of art that you’ll wear with pride. I thrive on collaboration, listening closely to bring your vision to life with precision, creativity, and care. Whether it’s hyper-realistic portraits, custom lettering, or something neo-traditional, I’m dedicated to exceeding expectations and creating an experience that’s as memorable as the tattoo itself.
Still here, still passionate, and ready to create your next masterpiece. Let’s make it happen.
