Born and raised in India until the age of 10, her work is deeply rooted in the spiritual traditions, folk stories, and rich artistic heritage of her homeland. Influenced by her family's creative legacy—and a grandmother who practiced kolam tattooing—her art serves as a bridge between generations, cultures, and sacred stories.
She brings a grounded and intentional approach to every piece she creates, drawing inspiration from Hindu esotericism, South Indian tribal motifs, and the energy of Mother Nature. Her color work often carries the boldness of American traditional tattooing, reimagined through the lens of her own cultural symbolism—plants, planets, deities, and ancestral patterns all come to life in her work.
With deep reverence for both her roots and the First Nations whose land we work on, her tattoos become more than art—they are a practice of connection, transformation, and spiritual exchange.
