My piercing philosophy:

  • I believe in “client over mod”, if I do not feel a piercing will heal well or otherwise suit a client, I will decline to perform the piercing.
  • I am here to help you and your piercing. Even if i did not perform the piercing, I will help you to the best of my abilities. No judgement.
  • I am active in the professional piercing community and always looking to further my own education.
  • I seek to educate and empower clients with information. I am happy to answer any questions you might have. I welcome and encourage potential clients to contact me.
  • I follow the highest standards for sterilization and cross contamination and my autoclave is tested monthly for to ensure it is in working order.
  • I urge piercing clients to review the Piercee’s Bill of Rights and research several piercers before selecting one. The APP’s Picking  Your Piercer is an excellent brochure.
