Currently appointment only.

A North Carolina native, Mel moved to Tampa Florida to study art and animation. She graduated with a Bachelors Degree and soon started her tattoo apprenticeship in 2011.

She calls Hart and Huntington in Nashville Tennessee home and has been with the company since 2016. 

Her favorite styles are minimalist, fine line, floral pieces, black and grey realism and watercolor. We believe if you are seeking Mel out to be your tattoo artist that you deserve the time and highest quality artwork she can provide. She respects the time and money spent from each and every client she works with. Your satisfaction is her top priority. Mel’s advice for anyone wanting a new tattoo is to find an artist they can mesh with artistically.

When Mel’s not tattooing, she’s hanging out with her husband and dogs. She’s a HUGE Harry Potter fanatic and loves watching the series, collecting wizarding memorabilia and lapel pins.

Other interests include the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Disney Plus, Lord of the Rings, animated shows, boy bands and going to the gym.
