-When and where did you get it? I got it a year ago in Miami. It’s a UV tat on the center of my chest.

I’m with the woman of my dreams, and it’s my way of capturing what we have in a creatively permanent way! Since it’s a UV tat, you can barely see it under the naked eye, which makes it even more special to me. It’s like my little secret.
