How did DaVo get into piercing?
• I thought it would make me cool. No, just kidding. Since about the age of 7 or 8 I wanted to get my nipples pierced. Not sure where this desire came from but it has always been there. Back in 1992 I decided that I that I had waited long enough and began to look for someone to do it. The more I looked the more I realized that not only was there very professionals in this part of the country but that I really wanted to do it. I began researching everything I could get my hands on from Modern Primitives to the old Piercing Fans International Quarterly (I really miss PFIQ). In 1993 after a couple of long talks while being tattooed by Sherry Sears at Creative Images, I decided to make the jump. With Sherry’s support, I began my way too short apprenticeship at Xotics and began piercing at Creative Images in May of 1994.
