My earliest memory into the piercing world was
around 6 years old downstairs of my parents basement
looking thru the pages of National Geographic, thoroughly
amazed at what was being introduced to my eyes.
Throughout the years life passed without much thought
and it wasn't again that my passion for jewelry and
body art surfaced until the impressionable age of
thirteen, the family summer trip to Cedar Point
amusement park, it was this year waiting in line for the
Gemini roller coaster with my father that I saw what would soon
shape my future. A guy with his pink mohawk and his
Dangling skull/dagger earring that I could not stop
staring at even if I wanted to, I was amazed by his
appearance but this time it was different and I realized
I needed to experience something, little did I know that this
would become my true passion.
I officially took my apprenticeship for body
piercing in 1993 at the Amulet in Grand Rapids with
further involvement in 1996 at The world recognized
Gauntlet studio in San Francisco for basic technique
and health and safety seminars. Further education has
been my continued attendance at the Association of
Professional Piercing conferences since the year of
2001 which eventually lead to me becoming a member
of the APP in March of 2005. Most importantly I wake
up each day waiting to pierce you in the safest
atmosphere created, one I would feel comfortable in.
