my name is sammy, i’m a tattoo artist based in asheville, north carolina, with frequent visits to new york city, atlanta, and los angeles.

i am originally from texas, went to nyc to study photography and then covid happened and then i went to grad school (lol) to study communication and interactive design because one day i want to make playgrounds and kinetic sculptures that you can climb on and hang out with your friends. I left NYC after 9 years to move to Appalachia, we’ll see how the country goes next few years because Ireland’s looking pretttttty nice.

Until then, I love tattooing its my favorite thing and i want to get really really good at it. 

i like to ride bikes and dj and play with my cat and cook and read and never stop learning <3
