In the tattoo world, they know me as Horror Tattoo. I specialize in the intersection of anatomical precision and nightmare imagery, using high-contrast black and gray techniques to create tattoos that feel etched into the soul rather than just the skin.

I've been tattooing for 9 years. I hold 2 art educations and founded my own studio. My work has earned recognition at tattoo conventions across Europe and the USA, where I'm both a winner and a regular participant.

Every piece I create starts as a conversation. I don't do flash or repeats. If you want a unique drawing designed for you personally, welcome.

“Every design is original. Every mark is deliberate. If you're looking for something truly personal, welcome.”

The Studio

Based in San Francisco with availability in Los Angeles and New York. Private studio sessions by appointment only.

The studio is a controlled environment built for long sessions and complex work. Clean, quiet, focused. No walk-ins, no distractions.
