Hey, I’m Mr. JetSetInk. A U.S. Marine Corps veteran raised in the Caribbean island of St. Croix, on a mission to travel the world and leave my mark…literally and metaphorically.

After leaving the military, I felt adrift. The structure was gone, but so were the anchors. I knew I wanted more than just survival. I wanted meaning in my life and adventure. I wanted to feel alive. That’s when I booked my first flight abroad and got my first tattoo in India. A simple reminder: “Be grateful! Especially when it’s hard.” That moment changed everything.

Now, I am traveling the world, getting a tattoo in every country I visit. Each one is intentional. It’s not just about the design, the memory, the message, and the moment. I’ve inked pieces inspired by culture, emotion, history, and even spirituality.

Travel, to me, is what life is supposed to be. We live short, fragile lives in an infinite universe. The only thing worth chasing is experiences and sharing those experiences with special people.

Mr. JetSetInk is more than a persona. It’s a philosophy. One built on gratitude, resilience, and rejecting society’s idea of how we’re “supposed” to live. I’m here to inspire you to live intentionally, break the mold, and leave your own legacy, whether on your skin or in the world.

This site is your window into my journey…and maybe…your own.
