based in asheville, nc

what you need to know:


I offer handpoked tattoos in a range of subject matter done in an illustrative stippled style. I prefer drawing and tattooing plants and birds and love freehand pieces that flow with the body.

I welcome clients of all backgrounds, identities, ages, and experience. tattooing is ultimately a collaborative process—the best part about this work for me is the human to human connection. tattooing creates a deep connection between artwork, artist, and art lover. during our session, my goal is to support you through the experience however you most need it.

handpoked tattoos offer a more gentle, trauma-informed approach to permanent artwork. because of the nature of the style, the skin is less traumatized and clients often report less pain and overwhelm. your tattoo appointment should be a relaxing, empowering, and ultimately joyful experience.

I offer a selection of unique, pre drawn flash pieces. flash is available on this website and on my Instagram. I am also is happy to draw individualized custom tattoos. I offer online or in-person consultations, and work closely with clients to ensure they feel comfortable sharing their needs and desires to best capture their vision.
