I'm an artist from Daytona Beach, Florida. I started out messing around with th idea of being a tattoo artist when my step father, Norman McFarland, who was a tattoo artist in late 70's and early 80's saw my art work as a teenager and insisted that I should get into the trade. I stayed in trouble as a kid, and I think he figured it would help me in some way. Little did I know at the time when I was 16 years old, that tattoooing would change my life for the better and give me a purpose. I still remember my first tattoo. Under his guidance, a small heart colored in red. It was amazing to me, and I have never looked back.  I have sinc tattooed around the country with many great artists and still travel a good bit doing guess spots whenever  I can. When I am not traveling, I am usually at the shop with my beautiful, wonderfully talented wife, Theresa Barnhill, who also tattoos here. I think that i have come a long way since my young days of tattooing. I also think that I still have so far to go and so much more to learn.
