Owner and operator of Grinn and Barrett, Jen Beirola is an east coast transplant who started her tattoo career in 2000 while serving a 7 year term in the Airforce. Her residency at G&B led to her eventual purchase of the shop and she has since developed a reputation that has made her one of the most respected studio owners / tattoo artists in the Midwest.

Jen has been featured in such national and international magazines as Savage, Tattoo Review, Pain, Prick, Tatuales (Mexico), International Skin Shots (UK) and Tattoo Revival (Australia) as well as several local and regional publications.

Jen draws plenty of inspiration from her talented team, but also travels the country and the world to participate in tattoo conventions and do guest artist residencies keeping her on top of her game and in touch with the best in the industry. As a multi-award winning artist, Jen is equally skilled at vibrant color, photo realism, detailed portraits, script and creative cover ups. She especially enjoys putting a new twist on traditional tattoo imagery.

Jen’s easy going charm and vicious artistic skills have won her a rabid following which helped Grinn & Barrett win a Best of Omaha Award for 2006 and 2008 and a Reader’s Choice Award for Best Tattoo Studio in 2009.

Jen is a Member of the APT (Alliance of Professional Tattooists) and Nebraska Body Artists Association.
