Santana

Introducing Santana, a talented tattoo artist hailing from Baltimore, MD, who has now set her sights on conquering Queens, New York. Santana's tattoo journey before joining the Black Ink Crew was no walk in the park. As a self-taught artist, she faced the challenges of being a Black female in the industry, struggling to gain recognition. However, Santana wouldn't trade her unique journey for anything else, as it has shaped her into the strong and determined artist she is today.

Being selected to join the Black Ink Crew was a dream come true for Santana, leaving her speechless and grateful for the incredible opportunity that came her way. The experience on the show validated Santana's hard work, dedication, and the sacrifices she made for her craft. It solidified her belief that she made the right choice and motivated her to continue pushing forward.

Living together with the other artists in the house proved to be both challenging and rewarding for Santana. The lack of personal space and constant interaction with her fellow castmates posed difficulties. However, amidst the struggles, there were also moments of joy and camaraderie when the vibes were right. Dancing and letting loose together created lasting bonds among the crew.

With this newfound platform, Santana has ambitious plans to elevate her tattoo career to new heights. She aims to work with exceptional clients, showcase her artistic talent, and expand her horizons. Acting or venturing into music are also on her radar, as she believes in embracing opportunities and making her mark in the world. Santana looks back on her journey with pride, knowing that she navigated the challenges and emerged stronger than ever.

Stay tuned as Santana's star continues to rise on the Black Ink Crew NY, leaving an indelible mark on the tattoo industry.
