Louise also works outreach in the Downtown East Side. In her rare spare time, she attends local sweatlodges, enjoys readings, good food, good chocolate, coffee with lots of sugar, and sleeping. As a true Dutch person, she is easily pleased by double-salted licorice.

Wayne Schau
Wayne was born in Vancouver B.C and was for the
most part raised in Surrey B.C.
He moved to the Okanagan with his family for a
few of his teenage years, but ultimately found
Surrey to be his home. Wayne, being no stranger
to tattoos and body piercing since his
mid-teenage years has always had an interest
with body modification. Over the last few years
Wayne has found himself more and more drawn to
the idea of pursuing a career in Body
Modification. This became a reality when he was
put in touch with Elwood of Elwood’s Body Mods.
Wayne completed his many months of extensive
training at Evil by Needle through Elwood’s Body
Mod’s in late 2010 and became the official Body
Piercer at Evil by Needle Tattoo & Piercing.
Wayne is a Father of three. He is fun, outgoing,
and easily gets along with all walks of life.
Wayne takes the safety of his customers, his
co-workers and himself very seriously and will
always take the time to make sure everything he
does is done the right way. Wayne is motivated
to continue learning about and perfecting his
craft for years to come.
