Nunez, a Miami local of Cuban descent, started his career as a graffiti artist before taking on tattoos. The artist got his first tattoo when he was 16 to commemorate his late father.
He then made his name as a talented tattoo artist to the stars. His reality show, "Miami Ink" revolved around his 305 Ink tattoo shop, tattoo designs, his clientele and their reasons for getting inked.
After Nunez closed 305 Ink, he put up another tattoo shop with fellow artist Ami James called "Love Hate Tattoos".
Due to his tattooing and reality show fame, Nunez was asked to joing the panel of judges for the tattooing reality contest, "Ink Master". Other judges of the said show include tattoo enthusiast and Jane Addiction's singer and guitarist, Dave Navarro, and tattoo artist and icon Oliver Peck.
TMZ reported this year that Nunez, a married father of one, was accused of sexual harassment by a runner of the said reality show, Nicoletta Robinson.
Robinson, who was fired last November, claimed that Nunez and Peck subjected her to verbal abuse, obscene suggestions and inappropriate physical contact.
In her lawsuit against Nunez, Robinson claimed that he had once asked her if she was pregnant after coming in sick, asked if she was menstruating and needed a hug and, also shared of an instance wherein Nunez claimed and explicitly described that his dog ate his wife's dirty underwear.
