Today, we're thrilled to host Gaston Siciliano, the mastermind behind FK Irons. Born in Argentina and raised in Miami, Gaston journeyed into tattooing as a self-taught artist, beginning his adventures in ink by tattooing himself at the tender age of 15.

Gaston founded FK Irons in 2007 without initially planning to start a brand. His entry into the tattoo machine market started quite inventively, building his first device with parts from a local Home Depot and leveraging YouTube to master the software needed to engineer sophisticated equipment. From a one-man operation, FK Irons has expanded under his leadership into a global powerhouse with over 500 employees.

With a rich background in graphic design, marketing, and photography—check out his work on Instagram @gastonshutters—Gaston discusses the evolving tattoo market, the increasing challenges within the industry, and the necessity for artists to adapt. A staunch advocate for AI and technological progress, Gaston shares his insights on how these tools are shaping the future of tattooing.

Join us as we explore Gaston’s journey from novice to CEO and how he’s steering his company through the tech-savvy waters of the modern world.
