Artist & Founder of New Moon Tattoo CO
I believe a tattoo should be as unique as the person wearing it. For over nine years tattooing professionally, I’ve dedicated my career to mastering the delicate balance of realism and whimsy. Whether it’s a small wildflower or a full-sleeve sparkle piece, my goal is to create art that feels like it was always meant to be part of you.

Raised in the heart of Colorado Springs, my journey as an artist didn’t start with a tattoo machine – it started the moment I could hold a pencil. I have spent my life exploring different mediums, but I found my true calling in the permanent nature of ink.
As the founder and owner of New Moon Tattoo CO, I’ve spent the last 4 years creating a private sanctuary in Old Colorado City where art and comfort meet. I specialize in the fine details – the botanical accuracy in flowers, bringing the soul of a portrait to life and the technical magic of a glitter tattoo – ensuring every piece is as unique as the person wearing it.
Life Beyond the Studio
When I’m not at the studio, my inspiration comes from the rugged beauty of our home state. You can find me exploring the trails and hiking, or rock hounding for Colorado’s hidden treasures – always with my boyfriend and our kids by my side. These moments in nature, whether finding crystals/stones or watching the light hit the mountains just right, are exactly what fuels the “sparkle” and realism you see in my work today.
