I am a qualified, certified and experienced classroom teacher. I took a career break from teaching, and I was a columnist for a premium tattoo magazine called Things & Ink.

This experience means that I have met many tattooists, as well as interviewing TV tattooist Ami James. I have also been interviewed by British magazines about my experiences as a tattooed person.

I was interviewed by a magazine 6 years ago about this topic. I do not advocate for any young person to get tattooed below the legal age. I want our learners to be safe and to make considered and educated decisions when they are old enough to do so.
