My name is Kseniia Storm, and I am a tattoo artist from Odesa, Ukraine. My journey in tattooing began when I was 14 and studying at a medical academy, but art never let me go. I decided to combine my two passions into one profession. I have been drawing for as long as I can remember, always drawn to paints and brushes. My background in art school provided a strong foundation, and I won several art competitions. I had two mentors who introduced me to the basics of tattooing. Later, I traveled extensively to attend masterclasses, seminars, and workshops, constantly learning and refining my skills. I always dreamed of being part of a big tattoo family. Today, I work in an amazing team that inspires and motivates me to grow and evolve.

I am 29 years old and have been holding a tattoo machine since I was 14, professionally tattooing since I was 21. My first tattoo convention was in Kharkiv, Ukraine, where I won 2nd place in the Neotraditional Tattoo category. Since then, I have participated in many tattoo conferences.I specialize in scar and old tattoo cover-ups and am particularly passionate about animalistic and anime tattoo styles, which I plan to explore further. Over the past four years, I have worked in Finland, France, Germany, Canada, Moldova, Ukraine, and now I am based in San Francisco, constantly pushing my creative boundaries and seeking new challenges in the tattoo industry.
