“My name is Niko. I’m a tattoo technician based out of the East Coast. I’ve been professionally tattooing for 6 years and doing what I love out of my own private studio. My specialties are black and gray realism, micro realism and fine line tattoos.

My purpose of opening NV INK studio was to create a comfortable space while giving my clients an authentic experience during their time with me and to be able to leave with a piece of art they can cherish forever, along with the hopes of being an inspiration to anyone who is looking to embrace change, a challenge and go after whatever they desire.

I would describe myself as someone who values being trustworthy, authentic and open minded. The true challenge of an artist is to step out of your comfort zone, taking each experience as an opportunity to meet high realities that exceed your goals. I embrace challenges rather than avoiding them, making it a point to venture beyond my comfort zone and explore new experiences.

I find great fulfillment in activities such as enjoying the outdoors, staying active, spending quality time with my family and above all, being a devoted father. Learning is a passion of mine and I actively incorporate the knowledge I acquire into my daily life. The love to continuously improve motivates me to strive for greatness and to ensure that my work reflects my commitment to my craft and most importantly personal growth.”
