Tattoo Artist, Illustrator, & Graphic Designer (among other things)

I’m Kristen — the human behind the screen/Apple Pencil/needle. Originally from Northern California, I moved up to the PNW in 2018 after getting tired of the CA weather (I know, I know). I live in North Portland with my partner Donnie, our sweet kitty Mary Berry, and 6 jumping spiders :)

After 8 years of being a full-time graphic designer, I made the switch to tattooing in 2021 and never looked back. I looooove helping people feel more like themselves, and it’s my goal to maintain a space where you feel safe to speak up and leave more confident than when you came in.
