Lynn Hoang: A Journey of Art and Resilience
Lynn Hoang is a gifted tattoo artist whose life story is one of determination, creativity, and passion. Born in Vietnam in 1991, Lynn immigrated to the United States at 13, where she excelled academically, earning three bachelor’s degrees from Penn State by the age of 21. However, despite her academic success, her heart was always drawn to art.
In 2016, Lynn made the courageous decision to leave her corporate career and pursue her dream of becoming a tattoo artist. Starting her journey in a small walk-in shop and later working from her mother’s basement and living room, Lynn refined her skills through persistence and hard work.
Her breakthrough came in 2019 when she joined Skin Design Tattoo as an apprentice under the renowned Robert Pho. Since then, Lynn’s career has soared, with tattooing becoming not just a profession but a deeply personal outlet for overcoming challenges like depression and anxiety. Her artistry has also allowed her to support her family as their sole provider.
