Zada Somers | CEO
As the CEO and lead artist at Royal Kidd Tattoo Studio, I believe every tattoo tells a unique story, and it’s an honor to be part of that journey. I work closely with my clients to bring their ideas to life in a way that feels deeply personal and meaningful, creating art that they’ll carry with them forever. At our shop, we prioritize building a welcoming, creative community where everyone feels free to express themselves.
As a female business owner in a traditionally male-dominated industry, I’m passionate about empowering others, mentoring young artists, and fostering diversity in the tattoo world. Balancing life as a mother and entrepreneur, I’m inspired every day by my children and strive to show them the power of resilience and following your dreams. My goal is to continue growing our studio, giving back to the community, and creating a space where artistry and connection thrive.
