Who’s the Mentor? (An Interview with Andrea Jensen)

In this episode, I (Amy Nicholls) interview my apprentice and long time friend, Andrea Jensen. Andrea is now a couple years into her career as a professional tattoo artist, but still feels the haunted memories of her apprenticeship days. Listen as we get Andrea's take on her apprenticeship, and I get further insight into this person that I tried to teach; Realizing rapidly that an ability to tattoo does not equivocate to knowing how to teach it.

As our relationship started from day one: It is hard to tell who is the mentor and the mentee in this dynamic; Andrea and I continually learn from each other and as much as her apprenticeship was hard, it was insightful to everyone involved... Hopefully, it will be to you (the listener) as well!
