WHEN DID YOU GET YOUR FIRST TATTOO, DESCRIBE IT AND HAVE YOU ADDED ANYTHING TO IT?

I got my first tattoo when I was 18. I did the classic ‘wanted a tattoo, walked into a random shop and figured it out on the spot’. Terrible idea. It’s a random quote on my ankle, and the quote is even written wrong. The script is so small you can’t read it properly now, thank god. It will most definitely be covered up one day.

WHICH IS YOUR FAVOURITE TATTOO THAT YOU HAVE HAD DONE, PLEASE DESCRIBE IT AND WHAT SORT OF MEANING DOES IT HAVE FOR YOU?

My back piece. The style is ornamental and blackwork. I look at the meaning of tattoos a little differently. To me, tattoos can symbolise moments throughout my life where I felt I was ready to enter the next phase of my being. They also remind me I’m on a path of freedom and creativity.

WHAT MAKES YOU A BADDASS, PLEASE EXPLAIN ?

Not being afraid to be different, and to be uniquely myself! It’s important to be who you want to be in this world. I also dance with fireworks and fire for my career, so I think that makes me pretty Baddass too.
