My passion for art started before I could even spell it. As a kid, I was constantly drawing, painting, and chasing that rush of creating something meaningful. In high school, that spark grew into something bigger. I poured myself into art, taking on every opportunity, from mastering techniques to painting large-scale murals across my school’s walls. That dedication earned me a scholarship to Simon Fraser University, where I pursued Fine Arts and pushed myself even further as a painter.

​

At the same time, I started learning how to tattoo. What began as curiosity quickly became a career, as I built up a loyal clientele and grew a business that blended artistry and connection. I never stopped painting or drawing, but tattooing unlocked a new level of purpose. Through it, I started receiving more and more requests for Native designs- especially from family, friends, and others in my community. Honouring those stories, those traditions, and that lineage lit a fire in me. I fell in love with Coast Salish art in a way that grounded me in who I am and gave my work a deeper direction.

​

Today, I specialize in Coast Salish artwork across multiple forms. My tattoo studio, Pulse Vancity, has grown into a 1500 square-foot creative space where I’ve been proud to create jobs and opportunities for other women. Whether it’s tattooing, murals, album covers, or digital graphics, everything I do is about visual storytelling; celebrating culture, identity, and connection with each piece. I’m still that kid chasing the magic of creation, but now I do it with intention, community, and a lot more ink.
