Life took Ivan on a detour through graphic design, but after losing his job, he faced a major turning point. Despite hearing those around him say that piercing had no future or wasn’t a “serious” career, Ivan decided to bet on himself. What he found wasn’t a job; it was his hyper focus and his true calling.
The road wasn’t easy. He had to navigate toxic work environments where the industry often reduced piercing to speed, volume, and quick profits. He refused to confirm to “five minute piercing” because, for him, every piercing is a responsibility.
