Born in New Jersey and now rooted in Nashville, Emma began her tattooing journey in 2021 and has been steadily making her mark ever since. Specializing in fine line blackwork, her tattoos are delicate yet intentional — crafted with precision, patience, and a painters eye. Her background in painting naturally flows into her tattoo work, creating designs that are both elegant and deeply personal.
When she’s not in the studio, you’ll likely find her chasing sunsets at the beach, hiking quiet trails, or dancing in the crowd at a live show. Music is a constant source of inspiration—fueling her creativity and keeping her connected to the rhythm of life. She finds balance in nature, art, and movement, and those elements show up in both her work and her process.
One of her greatest joys is spending quality time with her sister Molly, who lives with her here in Nashville. Their bond is a grounding force and a constant source of laughter, creativity, and support. Whether its a quiet morning together or a spontaneous road trip, their connection keeps her centered and inspired — both in life and in art.
