Hello! My name is Jazz Ho.
I’m a professional tattoo artist from the San Francisco Bay Area specializing in handpoke tattooing. I have been practicing the self-taught technique since 2016. I also co-founded NoNo Tattoo in Berkeley, California.
Since as early as I can remember, I’ve loved visual storytelling and manual crafts. Inspired by my background in graphic design, my practice combines contemporary subjects with hand-pushed mark-making to create unique and timeless tattoos done with a gentler infusion of ink with the skin. My designs are infused with elements of surrealism, minimalism, and geometry. My focus is on depicting shapes, objects, scenes, and moods in compelling and harmonious ways on the body. I use stippled gradients and blackwork to draw attention to light and shadow.
As a queer second-generation Asian-American woman, I’m proud to represent several marginalized groups in the tattoo industry. I welcome clients of all genders, skin colors, and body types to my work.
I use she/they pronouns.
