Manager | Artist
Hey there, I'm Zada, and ART is my ultimate passion! My journey began as a cosmetologist, but my love for creativity led me to become 3X certified in permanent makeup. Artistry runs deep in my veins – I come from a family of talented tattoo artists and I found the perfect mentor in my brother, Kiel. Under his guidance, I apprenticed and blossomed as a tattoo artist. Now, I get to live my dream every day, managing a vibrant shop right here in Greenville.
I am always seeking to grow and refine my skills, so I'm currently taking art classes to expand my horizons. Mastery is my goal, and I pour my heart into every design I create. When I'm not immersed in ink, you'll find me cherishing time with my loved ones. Family means everything to me, and my free moments are devoted to caring for them and creating unforgettable memories.
Come and join me in this artful journey of self-expression and transformation. Together, we can turn your ideas into magnificent tattoos that tell your unique story. I can't wait to be a part of your tattoo experience and leave you with bomb tattoos that reflect your inner beauty and passion.

Artist
Hey there, I'm TJ, and I'm utterly enamored with the world of tattoo artistry! For the past three years, I've had the privilege of creating meaningful and stunning tattoos that become a part of my clients' stories. Art has always held a special place in my heart, but it was around three years ago when I had an epiphany – I needed to turn my passion into a career, and that's when I embarked on this thrilling tattooing journey.
As an artist, I'm constantly seeking growth and exploration. My dream is to leave my mark on the global tattooing landscape, traveling the world and sharing my artistry with diverse cultures. Each tattoo is a unique piece of art, and I find immense joy in collaborating with my clients to bring their visions to life in the most extraordinary way possible.
Thank you for considering me as your tattoo artist. I'm excited to be a part of your journey and create a lasting, meaningful piece of art that you'll cherish for a lifetime. Let's work together to make your tattoo dreams a vivid reality!
