The first shop i actually worked at was custom body shop on westgate street gloucester
it was above an alternate clothing store run by Tai and Mary (Cheers guys)
i worked there for about 2months while Alzone tattoos was being fitted out.

I then went to work at the newly established Alzone(2000)on eastgate street gloucester i
pierced there for about a year before i moved to the place which shall not be named lol.

At which point i was meant to begin a tattooing apprenticeship which i kind of did!
i was there for about 3 mnths before i moved to Starline Tattooing(2001) in Nuneaton where my
tattooing career really began thanks to the owner Kevin Houston and Mark who both taught
me the fundamentals of tattooing for which i will allways be eternally grateful cheers guys.

From there i went on to open a tattoo studio in leamington spa called Dark Heaven(2003) at my
best friends clothing shop were she also tattooed this didnt last long but thats another
story!

I then went to skincandy tattoos in devon i was there for about 2mnths before the studio
shut for the winter i was then offered a job at Metalmorphosis(2005) in selfridges in birmingham
i feel my tattooing came on another stage while i was there, i was there until febuary this
year.

Then in may this year i did a guest spot for a couple of months at Sacred Heart in Leamington spa
cheers Morbid and Dave and good luck with it all guys!

At which point Allan contacted me out of the blue and offered me a job at Alzone Tattoos(2006) so here i am again after being a nomad
for 6 years working with the best artists ive ever worked with(you guys keep me on my toes)
since getting back my tattooing improves daily cheers guys for all your guidance and finally feel like im back home!

I just want to say a BIG thankyou to Allan for bringing me back to the shop you'll never really
know how much i appreciate all your help at the begining and the fact you had the faith in me
to ask me back after six years cheers bud
