About:
BDSM is my lifelong passion. I am a versatile Dominant Woman, a caring skilled sadomasochist and a ritualist. I know that consensual erotic power play is often be a valid path to self-discovery, intimacy and healing. Starting in the 1980s, I participated in many Leather Conferences and BDSM educational groups and developed a voice as an ethical kink presenter. In 1995 I founded the Academy of S/M Arts. In 2002 I offered the first ‘Erotic Dominance Intensive for Women’. I now hold weekend Intensives several times each year at the San Francisco Citadel, along with co-instructors Eve Minax and Selina Raven, for ‘Dominant Women/Men and Those Who Switch’.
My award-winning docufilm ‘The Pain Game,’ is noted for its authenticity in embodying the spirit of connected SM play and has become a classic. I also produced the video docu-drama ‘Tie me Up’ and am published in many non-fiction lifestyle books starting with the ground breaking anthology ‘Different Loving’ . I also appear in numerous online zines and kinky blogs. In 2008 I had the honor to be a Leather Marshall for the LGBT San Francisco Parade and become part of the Living Leather heritage of the SWLC.
