I'm Poco. My name is a nod to my Native American heritage – I'm a proud member of the Tohono O'odham Nation. Born and raised in this beautiful Sonoran Desert landscape, I've always felt connected to the land and its rhythms.

Growing up here has taught me resilience and adaptability. Life can be harsh, but it's also a reminder that beauty lies in the everyday moments – a sunset over the mountains, the way light dances across cacti spines, or the sound of the wind rustling through palo verde trees.

I've always been drawn to art and storytelling, using my tattoos as a way to express myself and connect with others. Each piece is a reminder of where I come from and who I am today.

But it's not all smooth sailing, sweetheart. Life can be tough, especially for someone like me – small but fierce, with a heart that beats strong despite the challenges we face every day.

Right now, I'm just trying to find my place in this world, navigating the complexities of identity and belonging. But as I look back at you from this desert landscape, I feel an unshakeable sense of pride – I'm here, I'm me, and I won't let anyone or anything take that away.
