Growing up in Los Angeles, Greg was introduced to the Chicano art and lifestyle at an early age. Getting tattooed in the mid 80s sparked an interest in the fine line eventually American traditional tattooing. By the early 90s he was tattooing professionally and eventually decided to start his own shop in San Clemente California in 2011. San Clemente Tattoo has an eclectic mix of artists who specialize in everything from fine line to American traditional and Japanese traditional with the same group of guys who started with him from the beginning. Greg says that Tattooing has been a gift from God and has changed and blessed every aspect in his life since he started.
