Her book "Indie Porn: Revolution, Regulation and Resistance" builds on her 15 years as a professional undresser, award-winning stripper, pole dancer and porn star. With an international research portfolio spanning sex worker activism, LGBTQ+ health, sexual rights and sextech, she brings a cultural and media studies approach to sexual health. She is a Chief Investigator in the QUT Digital Media Research Centre and is passionate about somatic sex education, intimacy coordination and maximalist fashion.
