Hi there! My name is Mallory, and I've been bringing my compassion to the world of tattooing since 2016.

My journey began in a traditional style shop in Springfield, MO, where I honed my skills, co-owned, and managed the business for five years. Since then, I've had the privilege of working in a variety of environments, from bustling street shops to luxurious private studios, all of which have shaped me into the artist I am today.

After moving back to California in 2021, I continued to refine my craft in different settings, where I expanded my repertoire and techniques. My recent experience in various studios has led me to my latest endeavor—dedicating myself full-time to the Feral Hearts Tattoo Collective, where I’m excited to focus on building a vibrant, supportive community.

I’m passionate about creating meaningful connections with my clients and other artists in the SF Bay Area. Whether it’s through my love for art, animals, or simply building friendships, I strive to make every interaction personal and kind.

When I'm not tattooing, you'll often find me with a paintbrush in hand, bringing to life vibrant fantasy sceneries, whimsical creatures, and anything that sparks joy. Painting is my second favorite way to express myself creatively, allowing me to dive into new worlds and let my imagination run wild. Whether it's on canvas or skin, I love exploring the endless possibilities of art.

When we founded Feral Hearts, Makoto and I were committed to turning part of our tattoo space into an art gallery where local artists can display their work.

If you’re interested in a new tattoo or just want to connect, I’d love to hear from you! Let’s make some art together and build something beautiful.
