From a very young age, I felt a deep curiosity for drawing and body modification. In 2006, I began exploring that world through piercing, which quickly led me to discover my true passion: tattooing.<\/p>

By 2007, I had started my training as a tattoo artist, learning basic techniques while surrounded by other artists who inspired me. My dedication soon earned me a spot at Mithos Tattoo, one of the most respected studios in my home country, where I also began competing in local tattoo conventions and won several awards, including Rookie Artist of the Year.<\/p>

My journey took me beyond borders. In 2010, I moved to Argentina, where I lived for a year and worked alongside renowned local artists.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

By 2012, thanks to the growing reach of social media, my work caught international attention, and I was invited as a guest artist in Lyon, France.<\/p><\/div><\/blockquote><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In 2015, I accepted a position at No Regrets Tattoo Studio in the UK, a place that brought together a diverse team of international artists. That same year, I was invited to the tattoo convention in Aalborg, Denmark, where I also participated in a live painting auction for charity.<\/p>

One of the biggest milestones in my career came in 2016, when I joined Last Rites Tattoo in New York City, a legendary studio where I worked for nearly three years alongside world-renowned artists. During this time, I also traveled across the United States, attending conventions as both a competitor and a judge, and earning multiple awards.<\/p>

Texas became a turning point for me. At the Dallas Tattoo Expo<\/a>, I participated in the competition<\/a> and was honored with the award for Best Black & Grey Tattoo of the Show. The atmosphere, the kindness of the people, and the sense of calm I found in Texas made me want to return.<\/p>

That led me to join Dark Age Tattoo in Denton, Texas, one of the most important studios in the state, where I worked with a team of 17 artists, constantly exchanging knowledge and even studying other art forms like oil painting and charcoal drawing, which enriched my vision as an artist.<\/p>

In 2023, I participated in the All Stars Tattoo Convention in Miami, where I won 2nd Place for Best Black & Grey Realism among more than 100 artists from around the world.<\/p>

In 2024, I opened my own private studio in Lewisville, Texas. It became a creative space where I welcomed high-level guest artists and developed many of my most personal projects, while continuing to connect with clients who value quality and detail.<\/p>

Today, I am proudly based in Austin, TX. Being here has been an incredible experience\u2014not only because I truly enjoy the city’s energy and lifestyle, but because Austin has become an inspiring home for this new chapter of my career.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
