I am 55, born on long island and lived in Manhattan since 1992 with the exception of one short stint in Miami (tattoo devoted to that period) and time at my country house in the poconos during covid. I just recently decided for financial reasons to live full time in the poconos (NYC 1992) tattoo devoted to this decision -
I have worked for Bloomingdale's for 25+ years and my focus in Learning & Development for our Department Store Leaders.
I have a creative side that has afforded me a few photography shows (tattoo of a canon ae1 coming soon) and passionate about spirituality, mental health, learning etc. My free time is spent landscaping. I have had two tattoo artists (for the most part) as i believe the intimate connection is critical to the experience. I can not walk into a tattoo shop and just get a tattoo.
My tatts represent a story board of my life. Each one either created, imagined or inspired by something I see or experienced that commemorates a chapter of my life.
