Naturally, she found it immediately and was…unhappy, to say the least. Nevertheless, I began getting modified in earnest because I was completely hooked. Piercings and tattoos a-plenty, I was nearly fully sleeved by the age of 19. Every penny that I had went straight to getting more tattoos and modifications. Each tattoo that I got felt like I was becoming more and more like myself. I am happy to say that that feeling has not gone away! I moved to Colorado from Minnesota in 2012 to get my undergraduate degree at CU Boulder in psychology with an emphasis on research methods and statistics. I started painting during my studies, and I fell in love with art materials in my first career. Exploring different paints, surfaces, and mediums encouraged me to create, and I began painting in earnest. I started tattooing in 2018 and discovered a great interest in tattooing botanical, witchy, illustrative designs. I like using clean, fine, lines and delicate shading to create dimensional pieces with themes from dark and occult, to light and airy. I love fairies, magic, Norse mythology, and dystopian media! Designs that come from my heart-most heart explore the dark feminine. I opened Shield Maiden Tattoo in May of 2022 in the beautiful Longmont, CO. I want the space to be a welcoming place for all folks, particularly those that have been harmed by the industry before or whose bodies are told that they are not welcome in mainstream spaces. You are welcome here!

I became interested in tattooing around the age of 14 and haven’t stopped learning since! I have immersed myself in every part of the craft including learning about the history, and cultural significance of the art form. I spent a lot of time and energy connecting with as many people in the industry as possible, visiting local shops and conventions to learn everything I could. I am heavily influenced by my father, he always taught me tattoos were special and beautiful. He passed early in life and tattooing keeps me close to him. I got my first job at a tattoo shop in 2018 and began tattooing in October of 2020. If I wasn’t a tattooer I dream of being a florist. I have two black cats; Yoshi & Poe. I have a beautiful family and a Big doggo named lilac ♡ I have an unhealthy addiction to Limon. When you arrive for your appointment you may see me wearing headphones. I struggle with anxiety and wearing headphones can help with my sensory overwhelm. However, I love connecting with my clients so please feel free to chat with me even if they are on! Please don’t ever feel like you are disturbing me! ¡Hablo español! https://www.shieldmaidentattoo.com/leslie daily 0.75 2023-12-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628ae76e11ca145b2fbd4080/452cc612-a331-4938-b7b0-05bd60f92def/ShieldMaidenTattoo-94.jpg Leslie - Leslie Pronouns: (they/them) Art has always been a large part of my life. In my teen years I found drawing on my friends with pens made me fall in love with working on the human body. I went on to get my Bachelor’s in Fine Art at the University of Wyoming in 2021 and started my tattoo career directly after. In my short time in the industry I have absolutely fallen in love working with people to create personalized works of art. I also enjoy exploring my own themes of witchy, ethereal and illustrative works. There’s a magic to helping people make their vision come to life and I can’t wait to the same for you!

My absolute favorite thing to tattoo are tramp stamps. The styles I lean into most are fine line black and grey, gothic ornamental, script, and tribal/sigilism. Anything grunge, occult, and whimsy looking is right up my alley. I love weapons, bugs, ribbons, flowers, crosses, skulls, bunnies, stars, and all things adjacent to that. Although I have my comfort zones I prioritize learning and growing further into this industry so I am open to working with all new ideas and styles. Outside of tattooing I love being outside, swimming at the creek, dive bars, dressing up and taking pictures, curating spotify playlists, hanging out with friends. My favorite color is green, favorite holiday is groundhogs day, favorite musician is Lady Gaga, favorite food is banana splits, favorite show is the Sopranos, favorite movie is Black Swan. https://www.shieldmaidentattoo.com/aboutus daily 0.75 2025-09-14 https://www.shieldmaidentattoo.com/book-with-trina daily 0.75 2026-01-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628ae76e11ca145b2fbd4080/3728bdfa-812b-4452-8c55-2439d9fac360/unnamed+%282%29.jpg Book With Trina If you aren’t sure about how your desired tattoo fits into this scale, please feel free to ask! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628ae76e11ca145b2fbd4080/83dde0b9-c978-46db-bc73-603749587393/unnamed.jpg Book With Trina - The Process in a Nutshell Step One: Fill out the booking form Step Two: We discuss the details about the design Step Three: A tattoo date is scheduled, drawing fee or deposit is due Step Four: A linework drawing will be sent over as soon as it's done!
