I featured in the "Books Closed Podcast" discussing the impact of EU ink regulations and starred in the 2020 documentary "Art’Tis Life," which explores the intricate world of tattoo artistry.

As a member of the Board of Directors for the Alliance of Professional Tattooists, I'm at the forefront of setting safety and professional standards within the industry.

I've collaborated on projects involving nanotechnology to develop smart tattoo inks, a pioneering step towards integrating technology with tattoo artistry.

I regularly speak at major conferences, such as the Association of Food and Drug Officials (AFDO), where I've presented on modern sterilization practices, the modernization of tattoo and permanent makeup inks, and the use of topical anesthetics in body art.

My work and opinions have been featured in numerous articles from outlets like Newsweek and the Oregon Capitol Chronicle, where I discuss topics ranging from the safety of tattoo ink materials to public health perspectives on body art.

Through platforms like my own site, Gloves Off, co-managed with Laurel Arrigona, we offer candid opinions and insights into public health issues related to tattooing.

I've participated in events highlighting the contributions of women in tattooing and have given demonstrations at tattoo conventions to educate and inspire upcoming artists.
