šŸ‘‹ Iā€™m Emily

a.k.a. Hayou or Hayoung
(she/they)

Iā€™m a Korean American tattoo artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area (Ohlone land). My career started in painting, illustration, and user experience design before pursing tattooing full-time.

My work is inspired by traditional Korean art and patterns. As a tattoo practitioner, I aim to provide the most comfortable and affirming experience possible tailored to each individual.
