Alex Bettencourt is a queer, gender-fluid educator and spirit-worker from Central Massachusetts. Alex has been active in the local, national, and international leather/bdsm scene for ten years and has now returned to public events and teaching after an extended break. Favoring play that shines light on the dark places that scare us, Alex is a connoisseur of kinky activities that reflect thoughtful action and an artistic approach. As such, Alex deeply appreciates all manner of body modification, intimate violence, and well-executed service. When not being actively kinky, Alex pursues a life guided by personal spirituality and finds satisfaction in helping those in need.
