My Story
I'm considered a pioneer! Tattooing back then-Definitely Not a woman's business! Being the only woman to ever apprentice with the world famous Gill Montie, is a testament to my determination and Bad-Assery!! As a tattoo artist & shop owner in Fort Myers' first tattoo studio, I became successful & respected in this male-dominated arena. Winning National's 1986 'Best Tattooed Female' allowed me to create international publicity around women, tattoos, and fashion.
Tattoos have taught me how deeply people carry their stories in their bodies- joy, grief, transformation, celebration & trauma. I listened to secrets, poured out from the soul, while administering ink tattoo therapy.
I feel very honored to have been trusted by so many clients with this ancient, sacred ritual.
My path wasn't a straight line-'Sugar Addiction' is ugly! I weighed too much, drank too much, and sold my tattoo studio as I battled uterine cancer. I joined a weight-loss tapping group and it changed my life! I understood the layers & depth of healing that the body & mind received during the tattooing process. With extensive training in Reiki, tuning forks, meditation & EFT, I developed my intuitive understanding of deep emotional energy & the freedom felt after doing the personal work.
Through Zoom, I offer sessions helping clients release anxiety, overwhelm, limiting beliefs & unresolved emotional blocks. I integrate creativity, guidance & proven tapping techniques to support your individual goals.
I would be pleased to share my knowledge & teach you a natural way to feel calmer, more empowered, and rediscover your own beautiful Sunshine!
