Born in São Paulo, Brazil, the oldest of three, son of a Brazilian mother and a Chilean father, Diego grew up very interested about other cultures, learning other languages, and traveling, having visited countries like Chile, Canada, United States, Thailand, South Africa, he had the idea of finding a career he could work anywhere in the world, so he pursued a graduation in Hospitality, working for big names like Marriot and Accor for many years.

A surprise for everyone who knew his passion for art, being the kid who grew up drawing in the back of the class managing to have good grades (for the most part) he got his first tattoo at fourteen years old and immediately felt in love with the craft. 

As part of living in a huge metropolis, street art was a great influence, and graffiti part of his art journey, where he developed an appreciation and elevated sense of attention for multiple forms of artistic expression.

After living in the US since 2017, doing all kinds of jobs to survive, paycheck to paycheck for the most part, Covid happened and really made him realize he needed to find purpose and get in touch again with his artistic self, that’s when he started studying how to be a Tattoo Artist. 

Fast forward to now, and this was the best decision he ever made, he is able to mix his customer service skills, with his tattooing skills, providing not only a good quality tattoo, but a great experience to each and every guest that books with him, building relationships and being recognized as a San Diego local specialist in Fine Line Style and Micro Realism, having helped thousands of clients from different states and from other countries, every tattoo is an opportunity to improve, and evolve to be better tomorrow and continue to share with others his passion for art.
