about
emily / hayoung

I’m a Korean American tattoo artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area (Yelamu & Ohlone land). My career started in painting, illustration, and user experience design before pursing tattooing full-time in Jan 2024.

My work is inspired by nature, east-asian ink paintings, and ornamental patterns. As a tattoo practitioner, I aim to provide the most comfortable and affirming experience possible tailored to each individual.

Please fill out my booking form to request an appointment or see my recent work on instagram. For art commissions or non-tattoo related collaborations please email me.
