Mr. Ladybug
Mr. Ladybug, She/They/Sir, is a proud LatinX Queer Master, a mentor, and a sadist who is Leather at her core. She is honored to serve as your 2026 Northwest Person of Leather. She’s the co-director of MAsT Meridian and a member of the House of Alternative Collective. She's been active from the start but after seeing and feeling the effects of the world on the local community during COVID she was inspired. She had a vision, and ideas on bringing it to life, so with the support of her wife, Fionna, and community encouragement, she founded Mr. Ladybug's Lounge & Boise Area Lending Library (B.A.L.L.), as resources. She’s a facilitator and event producer in her community. She hails from Boise, Idaho, with a California heart, and brings over 15 years of knowledge, experience, and stories. She believes in 'Servant Leadership' and volunteers on staff for various conferences and lifestyle events around the states. Mr. Ladybug has a passion for education, a drive for growth, and community engagement. She enjoys the outdoors, a good cigar, along with hosting and networking as often as possible. You can often catch her and Fionna, running around at events together year-round. They help in any way they can wherever they are.
