I’ve had the opportunity to work with and be invited into some of the best piercing studios in the country, experiences that have deeply shaped my approach and standards. I continue to expand my technical knowledge and stay current with best practices in the industry.

What piercing means to me

For me, piercing is about my self identity. Discovery and choice are often one of the first moments someone decides something entirely for themselves.
It can be a way of facing anxiety, trusting your instincts, or making a statement about who you are or who you’re becoming. Piercing holds different meaning for everyone: for some, it’s affirmation and standing firmly in what they love; for others, it’s about reclaiming autonomy and taking back the right to choose. Every piercing carries its own story, and every reason is valid. I want to give you a service that is grounded in what ever your beliefs are, and you shouldn’t feel as if you need justify them to anyone, including me. This is a welcoming space for ALL people. Loud and clear.

After spending five years working in Connecticut, I began traveling to broaden my perspective learning not just new techniques, but the culture, values, and community that define high-quality piercing. This industry has brought me to so many places, and I've experienced such valuable life lessons. Now in my final chapter I am bringing all of this to my home, Western Mass.

I’m a mom to one amazing daughter and a bonus mom to three boys. Opening my own studio in Chicopee means I get to share what I love with my own community the people I see in everyday life, the parents I meet through school, and those who have traveled to me and supported my work for the last six years.

Thank you so much for looking into my studio and considering me to be a part of your piercing experience.
