I'm 39 years old and feel like I'm 22! I opened Oshkosh Tattoo & Goodgirl Piercing with my friend Krissy. We have both been working in the Oshkosh and Fox Cities area for the last 17 years. Before opening this shop up I had worked at a few of the shops in the area, including... Forbidden Art(DePere), Steves Tattoo(Oshkosh), and 3rd Dimension(Appleton).
I have been drawing and doing art for all my life but my mom had realized that I was extremely talented by the age of 4! I have done a plethora of jobs that involved art, before getting into tattooing...
Hours: Mon 11-10 | Wed 11-5 | Thu 11-10 | Fri 11-10 * Schedule rotates every other week with Ariana.
Kris has been piercing in the fox valley since 1997. She is full of energy and is always busy setting goals for herself to be met on a daily basis, unless hungover, in which case she is usually lying on the cushions in the front window. Kris is fun to be around and there is never a dull moment in the shop. She makes the atmosphere fun, friendly and exciting for all who walk into Oshkosh Tattoo & Good Girl Piercing.
Krissy loves her mom and wouldn't actually be here without her. Krissy gave birth to her son Zeke in May of 2009, so she doesn't do much more laying on the cushions in the front window hungover...

Cliff had asked if I wanted to be an owner in the new shop Oshkosh Tattoo, I of course said yes. I had wanted to become a special effects artist for horror movies and have a large interest in the macabre form of art, but I am more then happy to do anything you can throw at me...

Hello everyone! I am the most recent addition to the Oshkosh Tattoo and Goodgirl Piercing family. I got my start at Steve's Tattoo (Oshkosh) in the spring of 2005. It was there that I developed my huge ego, mad tattooing skills and also a love for tuna. I LOVE what I do! Tattooing and painting are my two passions and my family and friends are my life.
When I was invited to join this wonderful family, I literally (and I do mean literally) jumped at the chance to work with these incredibly talented people...
