Koe’s story
Koe Creation is truly a Sex Educator for the 21st century. Having grown up as a child of a sex-positive, polyamorous family, Koe uses their unique knowledge as a second-generation queerspawn to provide prospective parents & families a framework for successful cross-generational communication about their identities and relationship(s).
Now freshly 30, Koe literally has a lifetime of hands-on training in nonviolent communication, intentional relationship building and sex-positive parenting, from the child’s perspective. Koe’s interest in relationship dynamics and Koe's award winning involvement in the Sex Education, LGBTQ Activism, Public Health Advocacy and work within Polyamorous and Kink communities has only grown throughout their life.
Koe has always been a performer; from early beginnings as their family’s resident ham for the camera to eventually working as a professional actor, model and dancer through their young adulthood. Koe was also deeply influenced by the positive role modeling they received, as a youth, attending summer camps for alternative families. In their current work with families, Koe brings the dedicated passion and vulnerable strength of performance to support their struggling clients, filling much needed roles like “Personal Gender Cheerleader”, “Sex-Positive Camp Counselor” & “Polyamorous Auntie You Never Had!”
Currently Residing in San Francisco, Koe finds time to run away to the forest in between balancing clients, partners and, of course, their thriving, polyamorous family!
Koe is available for workshops, public speaking and personal consult.
