Guest:

Siri Dahl (she/her) is an award winning multihyphenate adult industry personality and entrepreneur. She splits her time between Louisville, Kentucky and Los Angeles, which is exactly as insane as it sounds. She lives happily with her partner and their two black cats, and when she’s not being naked on camera or telling OnlyFans subscribers what she thinks of their dicks, she’s most likely powerlifting or hyper-focusing on her latest safe-for-work creative project.
