MEET MARGO (SHE/HER)
Studio Manager/ Body Piercer
Margo discovered the magic of body piercing at the young age of 11 when she stumbled across the BME site for the very first time. From that point forward, she made it a mission to learn as much about the art of body piercing as possible. This passion drove her to change career paths from ‘soon to be fashion designer’ to ‘hopeful piercer’. She sought employment at her local high-end piercing studio where she was soon offered an apprenticeship and worked under a veteran piercer for 3 years. She made her way into a full-time piercing position in 2017 and has been loving every day of it since! One of Margo’s favorite things about being a piercer is the fact that she’s always learning. “The piercing industry is ever evolving and there is so much opportunity available to continue to seek education and growth. I’m an APP member and avid jewelry enthusiast; I recently took my love of jewelry one step farther by graduating from the Gemological Institute of America with an AJP (Accredited Jewelry Professional) degree! My love of fashion is still alive and well (plus I can never talk enough about all things gold and gems) which has allowed me to more acutely specialize in curations and custom jewelry design; making those piercing goals a reality!”
