Azarja van der Veen is a tattoo artist and model based out of northern New Jersey who became enamored with tattoo culture at the age of 17 and never looked back. In her youth she frequented shops, building her own stunning collection of magazine worthy ink.

Over the years she has become a staple in the tattoo scene: gracing covers of some of the most influential magazines and frequently working events, such as International Tattoo Art and the annual New York City Tattoo Convention.
