About See

I believe that behind every successful student and training, there is a powerhouse mentor who makes a difference. Over nine years ago, I made the decision to leave my corporate career and enter the tattoo industry. My journey was filled with trial and error. I spent countless nights practicing, researching everything I could online, attending multiple in-person trainings, and pushing myself to master body art tattooing.

At the time, I had no mentor to turn to. Many artists were unwilling to share tips out of fear their ideas would be “stolen,” and supervisors often refused to guide someone who had trained elsewhere. That lack of support became one of the greatest challenges of my career.

Instead of letting it stop me, I turned those pain points into motivation. I dedicated myself to becoming the kind of mentor I once needed—someone who is open, resourceful, and committed to others’ growth. I believe becoming a licensed body art technician should not feel impossible.

I built my reputation on doing the work, staying ahead of the curve, and always speaking the truth. Much of my business has grown organically through trust, results, and real relationships. My mentorship goes beyond teaching the fundamentals of tattooing—I focus on what truly sets artists up for success: apprentice relationships, client connections, continuing education, marketing, and networking.

Your win is my win, and I’m here to make sure you have the support I never had when I started.
