The Lore

Hey! I’m Tracci — a tattoo artist based in Toledo, Ohio with a thing for anime, clean composition, and bold color.

I’ve been tattooing professionally since 2020, following a decade-long career in the body art industry as a piercer. My style leans toward anime, color neo-traditional, and both black & gray and full-color realism — but I love pushing creative boundaries and evolving with every piece.

My roots in art go way back. In high school, I got hooked on graphic design and video production. My friends and I made goofy VHS short films, which sparked my love for special effects, storytelling, and design. I went on to study Digital Media Arts at Specs Howard while piercing full-time and freelancing as a graphic designer. It wasn’t long before another artist handed me a machine and said, “You need to be doing this.”

Now, I tattoo out of The Raven & Rhino in Toledo, and travel to tattoo conventions around the country — including the Toledo Tattoo Festival — to connect with clients and artists who share a love for fandoms, bold designs, and nerdy references.

Outside of tattooing, I'm happily married, and we share a son, along with a house full of dogs and cats. I enjoy playing World of Warcraft and other games, I'm pretty decent at smoking meats, and I'll take any excuse to hit the golf course.
