Brandi was born in 1985 in Louisville, Kentucky and grew up in Oldham County.  She’s had an interest in art for as long as she can remember, especially painting and drawing on anything that wasn’t paper.  In 2003 she started at the University of Louisville with a major in Studio Art.  She ended up graduating Cum Laude in 2007 with her bachelor’s degree.  In March of 2009 she began working at Ink Well Tattoo and started tattooing that following May.  Her very first tattoo was on her (and current) boyfriend Nick.  It was 2 koi fish on his right shoulder.

When she’s not at the tattoo shop, she’s at home with Nick and their 2 dogs; Abba, a black lab mix, and Shotzy, an unknown mix.  In her free time she enjoys painting, usually in watercolor or acrylic.  She also enjoys watching horror movies and reading books by Gris Grimly, John Connelly, and Edgar Allen Poe.
