Once he came back to the United States, this side work in the adult industry, an offer to become a Dominatrix, and his obsession with helping other people find their own paths ended up providing the fertile mix needed for him to start teaching sexuality and spirituality classes again in 2002. This volunteerism in the UK lead to an offer in 2000 to star in his first adult film, under his modeling name of the time “Bridgett Harrington.” Focusing his side career (still working in the museum world) on modeling as a BDSM actor on both sides of the whips and ropes, he started offering on-line and on-video tutorials on rope bondage, safer sex, and other sexually adventurous themes.

Lee had already been an active part of the public alternative sexuality communities since 1995, but his work with ToA pushed him to take a role with behind the scenes event operations at places like Torture Garden and Club submission in London later that year while studying arts administration for his Bachelors Degree. The first round of delightful surprises in his current adventure began in 1999 when friends invited him to Burning Man (an Art and Humanities Festival in Nevada) where he became a priest for the Temple of Atonement and taught his first group class on rope bondage for a small but enthusiastic audience. He was not expecting to find himself here- but life is full of miraculous twists and turns. He thought it would be nice to travel and see the world (he continues to).

He was thinking he would become a photographer (he did and is), or a poet (he did and is), or perhaps become a special events coordinator for non profit groups (he used to do that too). A brainiac girl born in Lowell, Massachusetts, Lee was not expecting to end up where he is today, a human sexuality and spirituality educator, eclectic artist, gender adventurer and published author.
