Background/Bio: My nickname is =Squeeze=, I'm 34, Native American from the (Blackfoot) Siksika Nation. I was born and raised in Seattle Washington till the age of 15 when I then moved to Vernal Utah to live with my Grandma Lupe. When I turned 18 I went to work on an oil rig (Roughneck) and got a taste for big paychecks. Three years later I went to college at Uintah Basin Applied Technology College for auto mechanics and auto CAD drafting. My goal was to design and upgrade performance parts. I only finished 1 year then went back to work on the rigs. Oil field work is boom and bust and that is exactly what I did as well. I later became a tattoo artist in 2015.
Hobbies/Interests/Goals: I've always had an artistic ability. I grew up as a break dancer (B-Boy) for about 7 years. The 4 elements of Hip-Hop really helped me to build my artistic foundation and to sharpen my skills. I went by the B-Boy nickname of KiD one. I was intrigued by graffiti because there was no one way or style to it. Your style is your style, just like B-Boying. I don't dance anymore, other than tango, waltz, and freak dance. Nowadays I'm a pencil artist and my specialty is portraiture. I like to stay healthy, I power-lift and train in boxing. I like to read self-help books while listening to classical music. I used to like to learn about the cosmos but now I like to learn about the psychology of the brain. It fascinates me to learn about why people do what they do.
