I’m Lily, also known as Misz Lily. I was born and raised in Willimantic, CT, and I’m proud of my Puerto Rican roots. I’m a full-time mom, which is honestly one of my biggest roles in life, and I also happen to have a deep passion for piercing. It’s funny how life works out because years ago, I never imagined I’d be where I am today, working as a piercer at Eminence Ink—the place where it all started for me. I’ve been piercing at Eminence for a little over a decade now and have been at the shop since the beginning.

Fame Montalvo has been the one to teach me everything I know. Fame took me under his wing and helped me build my skills from the ground up. The journey hasn’t always been easy but it’s been so worth it. Looking back, I can say that everything I’ve been through has shaped me into who I am today: a stronger person, a more confident woman, and a dedicated mom. The journey has forced me to grow in ways I never expected, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Piercing isn’t just a job for me; it’s a passion. When you love what you do, it doesn’t feel like work. I truly enjoy making people feel good about themselves and helping them express their individuality through piercings. It’s such a personal art form, and I get to be a part of that journey with each person who walks through the door. Every piercing is unique, and I love seeing the transformation, not just physically, but in a way people feel more confident and empowered.

Being a mom while working in the piercing industry has its challenges, but it’s also one of the most rewarding parts of my life. I’m able to provide for my family while doing something I’m truly passionate about, and that balance makes all the difference. Family always comes first, and I’m lucky to be able to work in a place that values that too.

When I’m not in the studio, you’ll likely find me spending time with my kids, making memories, or just enjoying life. I wouldn’t change anything about the path I’ve taken, and I’m so grateful for the people who have supported me along the way—whether it’s my family, my mentors, or my clients. I’m here doing what I love, and I can’t imagine doing anything else
