Something interesting about yourself: I've owned this shop for nine years now -- the only female owned and managed shop in Toronto! Besides my business, I love to cycle, run, and travel. I've done 3 marathons, two 30km races, several half marathons, triathalons & duathons. I've bicycled the coast of Oregon, cycled from Bryce Canyon, Utah to the Grand Canyon, Arizona and back to Zion Canyon in Utah. I also rode my bike from Toronto to Montreal once -- just because I could! I love training at Cabbagetown Boxing Club and I recently developed a passion for Ashtanga Yoga. At the end of the day, I'm a firm believer in keeping one's "happy thoughts" alive.
Anything else: I presently have an amazing and talented group of 15 at my shop... the best yet! I'm extremely proud of the work my tattoo artists and piercers do. Check out their individual galleries! My management staff and counter girls are worth their weight in gold to me! And thanks to all of you who have helped promote my business through your generous referrals to friends and family!!!
