Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My Grandpa Leon! He came down to Milwaukee, WI in search of a better life with just a station wagon and a small trailer. He started as a maintenance man for a manufacturing company and persevered his way to Vice President. He is one classy, sharp guy, and I aspire to be just like him. :)

How do you stay motivated?

I’m constantly creating. Every day I’m pinning up Women through permanent makeup, restoring their confidence and making them feel beautiful as their best version of themselves. My mind is always racing with ideas and visuals of who I want to become. I use my love for vintage Pinup girls as my inspiration to build my empire, and since this discovery, it’s become so much more than just tattooing. I have always felt in my life that I am meant for more.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would further invest in my business of making other women feel confident and my personal brand. It’s my dream to revive the dying art of Pinup. I would be eternally grateful for this opportunity!
