Since 2008, he's been more than just tat zapping; he's been the visionary behind tattoo studios, cultivating vibrant spaces where tattooing transcends mere body art to become a form of personal expression and storytelling.Adam's journey in the tattoo industry began with an apprenticeship passed down through Eric Delrosal, carrying forward the traditions and craftsmanship from one generation to the next.
