Welcome

She started her career as a studio owner and piercer in 1997 in Hampton Roads at a time when to be a piercer you had to invent your own technique and create your own way, since there was no training because it was a brand new industry. Very little was known about piercing and jewelry at this time. Information was shared through small mom and pop shops that were producing what we now call basic steel body jewelry out of their basements. Kimberly studied wound care and jewelry metals, as well as she worked hands on with clients to help with problematic piercings to develop techniques and skills as a piercer in the formative years. She then taught others to pierce and has been apprenticing piercers ever since. She still maintains some of her first clients in Hampton Roads. As the industry grew and the jewelry market exploded in the early 2000's Finder's Keepers kept pace with the new jewelry and is well known for one of the largest selections of body jewelry on the East Coast.
