Bled in, Blessed Out: Luis Leyva
Manage episode 340367132 series 3303932
Born in Los Angeles, Luis Leyva’s life had a rocky start. At the age of 15, Luis was initiated into his neighborhood gang following a traumatic experience that stewed up a hatred for the opposing neighborhoods. Through this lifestyle, he became involved in the juvenile justice system which continued throughout his adult life. Ultimately, becoming a father and finding love led him towards his story of redemption. Luis found his passion for tattooing while incarcerated in prison and has been able to create a career in his “happy place.” As a tattoo artist, he feels he can help others by being there for them and giving words of encouragement. Luis looks forward to impacting others as opportunities arise to make a difference in young lives who may be facing a similar road as he once did. One of Luis’ most prominent and impactful memories is a speaker who attended his juvenile detention stay, so giving back to youth who are justice-involved is something he feels passionate about. We know you will continue to be a source of inspiration, Luis!
