As far as I can remember, I was always into tattoos. I say as far as I remember but really I mean from pre school. Don't think I was chasing children with needles though! My tool of choice was permanent marker and my arms were the canvas.

Now, I've been tattooing professionally for 8 years. Why only 8? Because that's when I got hooked on ink. Where I come from, there was no-one to learn about tattoos from. Had there been someone, I would have had at least 8 more years experience under my belt by now. Initially I got interested in black and grey ink but once I got hooked on colours I stayed hooked.

I love any work in colour; realism, abstract or glow in the dark so hard you need sunglasses. I love shading, touching up an perfecting until I get the exact desired effect. I love the whole process and get completely engulfed by it. It has become my lifestyle, essentially.

More recently another thing entered my life. Music. DJ-ing to be specific. It's like a drug, like addiction, I get a rush every time i stand by the deck. I could write and write about all of these but time flies and I need to play something today... Wanna meet me? Come to Ushuaia, that's my home, my place, my baby

But you know that already.
