Jessica June Leonard
She/her
Piercer
My name is Jess and I was born and raised here in Oregon. I knew at a young age that art was for me, but it wasn’t until after college that I realized what kind of artist I wanted to be. I completed my Bachelor of Arts and Design in 2017, and completed my Body Piercing Apprenticeship in 2021 and am a current member of The Association of Professional Piercers. I'm also a lifelong learner and have interests in science that I am pursuing as well.
I see body piercing as an art form, and I believe there is a very spiritual and freeing aspect to body piercing. I love being able to collaborate with you to bring your vision of yourself to life, and help you feel more at home in your skin. To me body piercing has always represented reclamation, bravery and transformation and I love being a part of the same journey for those I pierce.
