Own buisness
My love for art has always been special to me from a young age.As I got older tattoos not just the picture and its beauty but the meaning and stories that came with each persons choice of art had me falling in love with tattoos even more so. I traveled and attended tattoo conventions where I met a lot of people who became very good friends most of whom were tattoo artist. I eventually was asked to be one of five judges on stage at multiple conventions . My infatuation for the art shined through which inspired me to get ink done as well. All my tattoos also have stories and meanings to each. I like it a lot when people ask me about the meanings of my art work. Instead of not knowing me personally yet are very quick to assume by my appearance alone. I later decided to try something new and started up my side business calling it Inked Hawaii . I created two years in a row 12 inked men and 12 inked women calendars and had
Kauais first Tattoo convention at War memorial
convention Hall. It was very hard work,Took a lot of my time and funds and on end did not make much
financially but the Joy and happiness I got from that experience along with new things learned and new
friends made along the way made it's true worth simply priceless.Sadly Due to my mother getting into a bicycle accident and passing away in my arms that last year set most of my life goals on the side placing them on a temporary hold.
