Corey has been piercing since 2011 and has called Victoria home since 2016. Originally from the suburbs of Montreal, he’s fully fluent in French and has a soft spot for a really good poutine.

He’s joining us at Proper Poke as a guest piercer, bringing over a decade of experience, multiple APP Conferences under his belt, and a background in photography that shines through in how beautifully he documents jewelry and client moments.

Corey is known for a calm, clear, and reassuring bedside manner. He especially loves working with kids under ten, making their experience upbeat, safe, and memorable. High-fives are strongly encouraged.

If you want to make his day, ask him about conch or daith piercings—bonus points if you’re into rose gold, his personal favourite.

When he’s not in the studio, Corey can usually be found watching movies, chasing a new pinball high score, or nerding out about Pokémon.
