Sean was born on the North Side of Pittsburgh, PA over half a century ago to young German/Irish parents. His family helped to nurture his artistic talents through school, leading to his decision to pursue art as a career.

Sean took on many, varied jobs in the art field as he studied for his degree in Graphic Communications. The early (pre-internet) 90's found Sean being convinced by other artists and friends to explore the world of tattooing as an outlet for his talents. With their motivation, trust, and patience, Sean outgrew his home studio and opened his first studio, with the help of a partner.
 

Years of certifications, training, and working at hundreds of tattoo conventions and events with the world's best artist have put Sean among the top of this ever expanding tattoo world. Over 30 years has passed. and Jester's Court Tattoos has grown to be a Pittsburgh tattooing legend and has won repeated awards with the help from the numerous talented artists that have and still tattoo at Jester's Court.  We have been named one of Pittsburgh's best shops year after year.
