What drives and inspires you?
            S:  When I really think about it, it's nature, and the southern Californian desert in particular. Nature is everything I pull from, especially with tattoos which I am given a lot of creative freedom with. To be totally honest, I often tap into the vivid feelings images and stories I've experienced after taking magic mushrooms.
 

Whats your favourite subject to tattoo?
            S: Right now, I'd definitely say it's floral & ornamental. Ya I'm fuckin vibin with florals and ornamentals. Peonies, chrysanthemums and botanicals integrated with ornamentals. Oh and magnolias too, I love magnolias! But honestly, it's so hard to definitively say that because there's so many subjects that really excite and intrigue me, and I feel like picking one is too constrictive GAHHH

Whats your favourite music to listen to while your tattoing?
            S: Ooooooooo I like this question, I would definitely have to say EDM/House Music. When the music is upbeat and fun and energetic, I find it really helps me get in the zone to focus and knock out that fuckin tatt! 

​

Whats your favourite food/dish?
            S: MEXICAN FOOD. I mean I am half Mexican so there definitely is some biasedness there but I fucking love Mexican food.  I want to say menudo is my favourite dish but to be honest traditional menudo can get a little gnarly considering I mostly eat vegetarian. OH SHRIMP COCKTAIL! I LOVE SHRIMP COCKTAIL! And no, thats not the shrimp rings with the cocktail sauce. A good authentic mexican shrimp cocktail comes in the big glass margarita style bowls and has all the tomato sauce, avocado, cucumber, cilantro, onion and lime and other things too but i cant remember them all right now, now all I can think about is eating Shrimp Cocktail.

If you were trapped on a deserted island and could bring 3 things with you what would they be?

             S: Things? or can it be people? Because if I could bring people I would bring my husband Moondog, my mom and Ralfi, my dog. Actually if I cant bring them I wouldnt want to be on the island anyways. But I guess you said im trapped so I dont have much of a choice. Now that I think about it, this is a pretty dark question. BUT IF I HAD TO CHOOSE 3 THINGS, I would choose my glasses, my iPad with netflix so I could at least stay entertained and make it feel like i have people around me, and a shrimp cocktail.
