The Goddess is an author and international educator with a unique brand of irreverent humor. This covered Leather Master is a founding board member and President of Onyx Pearls Lustre Southwest and Directrix of MAsT Austin.
An ordained minister, International Ms. Leather (IMsL) 2024 and first BIPOC Ms. Texas Leather, she is exponentially powered by her three incredible force multipliers (her slaves): Dr. Bob, his BBG and Slave Sill.
The second IMsL of Asian descent after a fifteen year gap, she is humbled to be half of the first pair of Asian International Titleholders with the powerhouse IMsBB Spank Cake. The Goddess is proud to be one half of the first Onyx IMsL/International Mr Leather (IML) pair with the incomparable Pup Alpha (The first to earn this title as a pup). The Goddess is especially blessed to be a member of “The Family,” the oldest BIPOC Matriarchal Leather family.
She is honored to continue to be invited to present on her passions: sustainable female-led dynamics and the sustainability and growth of our Leather Women. She urges our community to work together to passionately defend our kin who are under attack, actively protect and advance our rights world-wide, exercise our right to vote in the countries we can and exert the power of our united voices to effect change.
