Meet Danny Cruz | Tattoo Artist

We had the good fortune of connecting with Danny Cruz and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Danny, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
The most important factor behind the success of my brand as well as myself is never giving up, and having a solid team around you. The road to success isn’t quick nor is it easy and honestly, I’m still traveling on it but with the security of knowing to never give up, and that everyone at the tables eats. Anything you want in life is going to come with obstacles, you just got to find a way to overcome them and when you do, they don’t seem as big as before. Success has its own meaning to people, mine is simple, go hard everyday and never give up, never quit. 25/8 Life

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I been tattooing almost 13 years now since August 2009. Straight from the streets to a professional career.. It was alot of obstacles to overcome of course like anything else but I just keep the mindset “small things to a giant” and just take challenges as they come and knowing nothing worth having comes easy..Most of the time challenges are there to make you better and creates growth.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Well Im from the city of Atlanta so I recommend places like Onyx, Blue Flames, Pin-ups, Cheetah. and of course Magic City

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would like to shoutout God, my family, my wife Kaylah, my children for always holding me down. South Atlanta…Southside Clayton County for raising me and always supporting me. Everywhere I go everyone always showing me love and support in my career. Im always hearing people who known me my whole life saying how proud they are of me so I cant let them down!
