Melanie is a cosmetic tattoo artist living and working in beautiful Bend, Oregon. Melanie worked in the fashion and cosmetic industry for over 10 years before meeting her tattoo artist husband, Edward, in 2009. Together, they opened Monolith Tattoo Studio and quickly became Central Oregon's Best Place to get a Tattoo. They then went on to open Monolith Tattoo Academy in 2021, and now the cosmetic tattoo specialty studio called Adored Tattoo Boutique.
Melanie was previously a makeup artist and manager for MAC Cosmetics and missed her artistic outlet in the makeup industry. In 2017, she attended school, obtained her Cosmetic Tattoo Artist License and pursued advanced training in microblading.
Later, she opened her services up to microblading, ombre shaded eyebrows, and lip blushing tattoos. Her passion is to empower her clients and show them their full potential of beauty both inside and out.
