Kate Von D

by Lupita

The person I admire most is Kat Von D because she is awesome and she isn’t afraid to say what she thinks. She is the person I admire the most.

Kat Von D or (Katherine Von Drachenberg) but she thinks that Kat Von D is easier. She is 26 years old and born in Nuevo Leon, Mexico on March 8th 1982. If you look at her you would never think that she was from Hispanic origins, however she is. At the age of four her and her family moved to Colton California. Her parents are Rene Drachenberg and Sylvia Galeano they are both Argentines which mean that her nationality is German and Spanish-Italian. Her first time tattooing someone was at the age of 16. Kat got her first tattoo at the early age of 14. It was a j in Old English Type as a symbol of a lost love. The first tattoo she did was a skull and bones from the band “Misfits”.
She became more popular when the hit show “Miami Ink” first aired. Kat was the only girl on the show which created many problems. So after two years of being on “Miami Ink” she decided to leave because of personal problems with the owner of the shop Ami. After quitting she decided to move back to Los Angles and open up her own tattoo shop and get her own T.V shop called “L.A Ink” which premiered on August 8th. Oddly Kat seems like a rocker chick but really she loves Beethoven and has many tattoos that came from him. She is not at all afraid to speak her mind. If Kat has something to say she just says it. I love this about her because that means that she is not the shy type and not going to let people walk all over her. This to me is very admirable.

Kat Von D is the most awesome chick EVER. I think that she is one of the best people ever. Why not admire Kat Von D?
