Who We Are
Owner & Tattoo Artist
In 2005, Jake Doyle walked into a tattoo studio in Fort Collins looking for his chance at an apprenticeship. That studio was Joker’s Wild and Jake was hoping for a chance to apprentice under Thomas “Webb” Rivard. After a year of walking into that shop countless times, Webb’s wife, Vicki, decided to take a chance on Jake and start him as a body piercer. While not the apprenticeship he had in mind, he was grateful to Vicki for providing an opportunity to get his foot in the door. It wasn’t long before Webb took notice and took Jake on as an official tattoo apprentice.
​
Jake did know at the time that he would have the honor of being the last apprentice brought up by Webb who passed away December 23, 2011 from Cancer.
​
Webb’s spirit and teachings are kept alive through Jake at NoCo Studio via both his professional practice and in how he educates his own apprentices. Jake is forever grateful for the opportunities and relationships that tattooing have brought to him. He strives to develop a personal connection with each client while ensuring that he exceeds their expectations.
Jake’s work is well known and his client base is well established. He has a true passion for the artistic and crafting side of tattooing and works to grow and learn with every piece he does. Jake is known for his attention to detail, clean work, and unique realistic style.

Chelsea has been an artist for as long as she can remember. Art has been a passion of hers throughout her entire life.

Dedicating her life and artistic abilities to the art of tattooing, Chelsea states, "I am honored to be part of this path to help people create their individual tattoo vision. There is constant growth in this journey and I am filled with gratitude to share this growth with clients, friends, and family."
​
Chelsea believes that brining art and vision to a tattoo is a process, which includes helping her clients by providing a comfortable experience and having them leave with a tattoo that they can be proud to carry with them.

Tattoo Artist
Joker's Wild was not only the starting point for Jake Doyle, but also for Nate. He completed his apprenticeship under Thomas "Webb" Rivard and worked with him for years.
​
Much like the teachings incorporated into NoCo Studio, Nate learned the art of tattooing. This meant learning how to build needles and mixing inks all while cleaning the shop, booking appointments for other artists, running errands and building tattoo machines.
​
As a professional Tattoo Artist, Nate's goal is to always turn his client's idea into a head turning piece of art. He accomplishes this in a clean and safe environment always. This process includes the design consultation, illustration, and the skillful application of the tattoo.
​
Nate not only works hard on his art and tattooing process, but also on creating a fun and memorable experience for each client. He takes the time to design custom pieces with the client present so that it can truly be made into exactly what the client has envisioned. He is an award winning artist that has been in this industry for 22 years.
