Ozma (she/they)is a long-time kink community member who has spent the last decade of her life helping shape the landscape of public BDSM and consent-based spaces. By trade and lengthy education, she is a scientist; by passion, she is a creator and protector of progressive kink community spaces. She currently serves as owner and Producer of Ropecraft event while also co-producing Tethered Together Event with her friend and business partner Skyla. Her expertise lies in blending technical logistics with community care and commitment and she balances her exciting adult professional world ties with a grounded home life where she indulges her interests as an avid spreadsheet fetishist and small electronics geek.  She firmly believes that kink and alternative lifestyle communities have the potential to enrich our lives not just through play but through the deliberate cultivation of inclusive, welcoming, and supportive environments and meaningful connections. Her leadership is driven by a commitment to strong ethics, power-awareness and the belief that agency and mutual respect belong in all interactions and spaces, kinky and otherwise.
