How would you describe yourself in three words?
Inhabited in curious pleasure.
Tell us more about yourself and what you do.
Honestly, I’m always working. If I’m not client-facing with coaching or tantric massage, I’m writing for my Substack, developing my online offerings or figuring out how to reach more people.
There’s always something, and I love it. I’m growing not just as a practitioner but as an entrepreneur, and that excites me.
Outside of work, I’m in my garden, pet sitting for friends while they travel, studying shibari as my own somatic exploration, and drinking tea in my slippers like the nana I am.

What services do you offer on Sensuali?
If you’re based in or travelling through Auckland, New Zealand, you can see me in person for tantric massage or Sex & Pleasure coaching.
If you’re anywhere else in the world, I offer Sex & Pleasure coaching online.
I also have a self-paced men’s erotic stamina training programme called The Control Curve, for men who want to learn how to last longer and actually feel more in the bedroom.
What turns you on?
I have a competency kink.
What turns me on is someone who is genuinely good at taking care of me.
Spoiling me, celebrating me, worshipping me, loving me, taking decisions off my plate, and helping me remember how amazing I am.
The competency is in the devotion.

What do the first 60 minutes of your day look like?
Slippers on, big cardy, cup of tea.
I’m a total nana in the mornings and I’m not sorry about it. I potter around my flat, put away dishes, refill my water filter, maybe read a bit, sit in my chair in the sun.
Just small tasks, moving my body gently, clearing the way. I don’t rush into the day, I ease into it.
Why do you do what you do?
Because I can’t do anything less.

What should more people know about your work?
Besides the fact that I can write sex toys off as a business expense, hello educational props, one of the biggest pleasures is what happens when I get fully lit up in creativity. I get turned on.
There’s this beautiful cycle where the work and the life force just keep feeding each other, Eros and creative energy constantly replenishing.
Work with sexuality long enough and you realise it’s not separate from everything else, it’s the source of everything else.
What’s your superpower?
I can surrender completely to my pleasure with absolutely no guilt.

Who are your sensual inspirations?
I don’t really have sensual inspirations in the traditional sense. I don’t have role models I look up to or compare myself to.
My inspiration is just me, the version of me I’m becoming.
Any closing thoughts?
Keep the sexy pot simmering.
Adopt a lover’s mindset.
Flirt like you can’t get enough of them. Kiss as if it’s your last breath.
