As the sex and culture editor of Playboy.com, I launched the company's first-ever Playboy Pride editorial campaign in 2016, which featured essays from five influential voices in film, music, media, politics, and performance art. The essay series, titled "We Will March On," jumpstarted a years-long renewal of Playboy's commitment to LGBTQ people.
In 2017, the magazine selected its first transgender Playmate, Ines Rau, and won the British LGBTQ Award for Best Brand. A year later, Playboy launched the PRIDE IS GOOD campaign under my leadership, to support The Trevor Project's fight to end conversion therapy in the United States. I also contracted Playboy's first openly transgender contributing editor, Ashlee Marie Preston.
The PRIDE IS GOOD campaign was supported by more than 20 LGBTQ influencers, from YouTuber Kyle Krieger to artist Seth Bogart to drag performer Aquarius. Playboy received its first GLAAD Media Award nomination in 2020 for its profile of Geena Rocero as 2019 Playmate.
