Veteran-owned Marzmade Tattoo Studio Expands Mobile Services and Community Outreach
Retired U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Daniel Wright, Jr., a Newark native with an extensive military background, has forged a unique path post-service that combines his love for tattoos and compassion for fellow veterans. Through his mobile tattoo studio, Marzmade, Wright not only delivers exceptional body art but also provides a platform for healing and community engagement.
With a sprinter converted into a mobile tattoo studio, Marzmade has garnered attention not just for its innovative setup but also for its mission. Wright’s clientele boasts notable names like Landon Collins, Maino, and Lance Sevalis, reflecting the studio’s reputation for top-notch artistry. Furthermore, Marzmade’s commitment to giving back is evident through its tattoo donations to wounded veterans globally.
Beyond tattooing, Wright, a recipient of the Purple Heart for injuries sustained in Iraq, follows his passion for art into the business realm, motivated by the therapeutic benefits he experienced firsthand. Marzmade serves as a testament to Wright’s resilience and entrepreneurial spirit, showcasing his transition from military life to business ownership.
Looking ahead, Wright envisions franchising his mobile tattoo business, simultaneously expanding his non-profit, Service and Ink, to collaborate with organizations dedicated to veteran suicide prevention. This dual strategy reflects Marzmade’s commitment to both commercial success and social impact.
In a statement, Wright shared his philosophy on success and entrepreneurship, emphasizing the importance of perseverance and authenticity. “Work hard and believe in yourself. Be yourself because there’s no better person to be you than you.”
Marzmade’s upcoming plans include participation in tattoo conventions like the Allentown Fair and the Raleigh Tattoo Convention, aligning with the studio’s ambition to engage with a wider audience and foster a sense of community within the tattoo industry.
As Marzmade continues to thrive at the intersection of artistry, entrepreneurship, and social responsibility, Wright’s journey stands as a testament to the transformative power of creativity and resilience in overcoming life’s challenges.
