About Me
Who am I?

Kink and BDSM Education
I have been involved in the kink community for almost all of my adult life. I began teaching over a decade ago when I realized there were a number of bottoms I knew who had bad experiences with their first electrical scenes. Most classes focused on how to use the violet wand and not on how to navigate negotiating, bottoming, and advocating what you wanted if you weren't the Top. That led me to creating my first class, Bottoming for the Violet Wand, which is still one of my favorites to teach today! I have taught all over the country and had attendees from all over the world! I also love being able to teach about BDSM to non-kinky people and do a lot of work with mental health and healthcare professionals to destigmatize kink and make their interactions more open and affirming.
Personal and Professional
I am an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist and BDSM Educator with a private practice in the Washington DC area. My practice works with kinky, CNM, LGBTQ+ clients as well as focusing on body liberation. I specialize in power exchange dynamics and mixed structure (monogamous and non-monogamous) relationships. I have an undergraduate degree in theatre performance, costume design, and Shakespeare, and worked in film and the high-end fashion industry prior to changing careers. In my free time I love to make art, do crochet and chainmaille, cook and bake, travel, and talk excessively about my absolutely perfect cat, Rosalind.
