Dani is a 27 year old queer, femme tattoo artist with 8 years of experience. Originally from the Bronx, they moved to the Hudson Valley in 2019 and opened Aesthetic Tattoo. This then later evolved into Rosy Cheeks Tattoo in Rosendale, NY, which is operated alongside their best friend Annabelle (a.k.a. honeymoonink).

Dani goes by the playful moniker Purrsimmon, combining the "purr" of a cat with their favorite autumn fruit, the persimmon. Specializing in anime, cartoons, lady faces, florals, and more, Dani collaborates closely with clients to create one-of-a-kind tattoos inspired by their shared vision. They view tattoos as an intimate experience, often forging lasting friendships with clients.

Outside of tattooing, Dani immerses themselves in eclectic interests that fuel their creativity. Their passion for anime and manga significantly influences their artistic style. Pole dance fitness enhances their agility and confidence. Collecting and pinning insects keeps them grounded and connected to nature. Their active involvement in local DIY art and music scenes further enriches their artistic vision and tattooing practice.

Dani can’t wait to connect with new clients, sharing laughs and creating unforgettable tattoos along the way.
