MEET PAULA

Paula is the heart and soul behind Dragon Ink Tattoo & Piercing, steering the studio with a passion for the craft and a dedication to excellence. While she expertly manages the shop, ensuring a welcoming and professional environment for both artists and clients, Paula is also honing her skills in the art of piercing, aspiring to add her creative touch to the studio’s array of services.

Together with hubby Frankie we decided to open the shop for Tai to eventually take over. As parents we want our kids to succeed & with Tai being so passionate about his tattooing & so talented it made sense to open a shop for him. I am in charge of the day to day running of the business so Tai can concentrate on his tattooing
