Tribal
From adversity to artistry
Hailing from the Philippines, Victor Rodriguez's family moved to the United States when he was 11 years old. Because of his very Hispanic name, the people he grew up around assumed Victor could speak Spanish, which he couldn't. This prompted Victor to come up with what he called his "tattoo name."
