Meet the Founder of Karmma Tattoo: A Story of Resilience, Redemption, and Purpose

​

I'm the founder and owner of Karmma Tattoo—a studio built not just on ink and artistry, but on second chances, personal transformation, and unshakable foundations.

Growing up between divorced parents, I often felt lost, isolated, and unheard. That silence led to rebellion, and for years I found myself in the wrong places, with the wrong people. But somewhere deep down, I always knew that wasn’t who I was meant to be. I made a choice—one that changed everything. I cut ties with that life and began rebuilding myself from the ground up.

​

My first steps forward came through discipline and hard work. I started as a chemist, working for my then-girlfriend’s family business. That chapter gave me the stability and strength I needed to dream again—but this time, I focused on building something of my own. Fueled by passion and a deep respect for the craft, I studied tattooing and piercing and opened my own shop.

​

Karmma Tattoo was born. And for the past 16 years, it’s been more than just a business—it's been a movement.

​

Today, I lead Karmma Tattoo with purpose. I mentor young artists, helping them unlock the best versions of themselves. I’ve built a space where hustle, growth, and mutual respect are at the heart of everything we do. My goal has always been to create an environment where people—artists and clients alike—feel empowered and inspired.

​

I’m proud of what I’ve built. I’m proud of what we stand for. But more than anything, I’m driven by the desire to leave behind a legacy for my daughter. So she never has to walk the path I did—but knows she can overcome anything if she ever does.

​

Life is about choices. Every day, I choose to show up, take a breath, and keep moving forward.
