Hi everyone!! :) I am the co-owner of our shop Sacred Needle and apprentice of Jess. I have been studying piercing for a year and a half. I had no idea I even wanted to have a career in piercing until Jess approached me about pursuing an apprenticeship with them, I realized there was no way I could pass up an opportunity like that. What we do is so important to me because it gave me the autonomy over my own body again, after getting out of the military. Being told what I could and could not do with my body at all times was something I struggled with a LOT. It pushed me to discover my own individualism, and the reason why I am such an advocate for being your own person. I feel very honored to make people feel good and at home in their bodies. I hope to see you at the shop in the future!
