Queer sex educator and journalist helping people have the sex they want—safely, pleasurably, and on their own terms.
Writing at the Intersection of Sex, Wellness, and Identity
I’m a queer, pleasure-inclusive sex educator and journalist who blends storytelling, research, and lived experience to demystify topics that traditional sex ed often leaves out. With more than 2,500 articles in publications like Cosmopolitan, GQ, Women’s Health, and Well+Good, I create shame-free, evidence-based content that affirms queer experiences, challenges harmful norms, and helps people better understand their bodies, desires, and relationships.

My Approach
(01)
No Shame, Just Information
I write about sex with clarity, curiosity, and zero euphemisms—because people deserve answers that are actually useful.
(02)
Queerness Isn’t a Footnote
LGBTQ+ experiences aren’t an add-on in my work—they’re centered, normalized, and treated with depth and respect.
(03)
Safety and Pleasure Are Non-Negotiable
Sex ed shouldn’t start and stop at reducing risk. People deserve more than just the bare minimum—so I write about sex in a way that includes desire, affirmation, and queer joy.
