Dave Stevens

I'm a born and bred Kiwi, raised in Central Otago/South Canterbury down on the farm. Went to secondary school in Taupo and spent the last 25 years in Levin with my wife Tracey (our office admin, slave, health & safety supervisor), and our three kids and three grandkids. I've been tattooing for over 20 years. Before taking over Electric Ink about ten years ago, I worked in Wellington as a freelancer and in the U.K. My hobbies include: travelling, rugby, reading and old-school cars. Considered the grumpy old man, I dont wake up grumpy. I like a good yarn and can talk ya ear off about anything - takes ya mind off what happening, I have a good sense of humour and if people are nice to me then I'm nice to them. Easy really, it costs nothing to be nice, eh.
Cheers, Dave.

Rob Hapeta.

Robbie is a born and bred local, Ngati Raukawa/Ngati Toa descent, educated in Levin at Waiopehu College. Married with their first child. He started working here full time after apprenticing for us part-time after work (long days). Rob likes all styles of tattooing but leans towards his own culture's art: mainly contemporary design (kirituhi) or New Zealand related. With a good sense of humour, laid-back attitude, talented art skills and solid work ethics, he is an asset to this business and industry. He likes fishing, hunting and having a good yarn, which is very relaxing for the customers.
Cheers, Dave

She is very serious about what she does and has worked in the hospitality business so is very outgoing and friendly and loves to have a wee chat. If you're looking for that feminine design she is the person to see."
