How to Come Out like a Porn Star
“Does your family know?” It’s a question I get asked a lot and it’s a fairly simple answer: Yes, many close family members know that I do porn, and they support me. And some of them I haven’t told yet because I want to come out to them when the time is right. Simple enough...
Lorelei Lee & Stephen Elliot’s CHERRY
I’m really excited about Cherry, a film written by my friends Lorelei Lee and Stephen Elliot. Not to give spoilers, but it will be one of the few films that shines a somewhat realistic and positive light on sex workers in the adult film industry. I’m also proud to say that I got to participate...

That Big Curved Glass Dildo
About 2 years ago, I was gifted a beautiful big, curved glass dildo. It was love at first sight and quickly became one of my favorite sex toys. Like many of my favorite toys, I used it in some of my porn scenes. One of these was a solo masturbation scene in GUSH: The Official Guide...
