Chris opened Syndicate Tattoo in Camrose in May 2023, a dream finally come true. After years of battling addiction, Chris finally decided he had had enough after nearly losing his life. He now takes pride in being an outspoken recovering addict. Chris prides himself on his work and is often too self-critical for his own good. He enjoys creating custom, one-off designs, American traditional flash, and anything to do with skulls. Above all, he loves doing cover-ups. Being able to give people a fresh start on a poorly done, disliked, or old tattoo is one of his true strengths. He takes pride in giving people something they can be proud of, showing off their tattoos instead of covering them up, reminding himself of the years he hid his own demons. In his spare time, Chris enjoys living a simpler life, but always has something on the go - a project, a sporting event for his son, or figuring out how to improve himself daily. Chris looks forward to bringing your ideas to life and welcoming you to the Syndicate family, his "freaks and geeks," as he would say!
