Vanessa Cliff is an adult film producer, actress, and community organizer based in Seattle, WA. A happily slutty, kinky and pansexual woman, Vanessa works for a future where all people, regardless of their body, identity, sexuality, or labor, are healthy, safe, free and loved.

Although her career in sex work began as a for-hire porn actress, these days Vanessa is the one calling the shots - or, more accurately, she and a team of other women and queer people who have joined together to form an unusual production company. Unlearning shame about her own body, identity, sexuality, and sexual labor only happened through connection to others. In her work, she strives to build a healing community in which people recognize parts of themselves in each other, lose shame, and find their own power. 

Before her roles in the adult industry, Vanessa worked as a social worker, community organizer, research analyst and writer. She has an M.A. in Human Rights and Nonprofit Management, and a Ph.D. in Social Sciences. More importantly, she is the proud solo parent to an incredible kiddo with whom she loves making huge baking messes and checking out every book at the library. 

Pixie comes to Cliff Media with a background in social services, health care and social justice organizing. She has a compassionate and confident approach to navigating complex crisis environments with a foundation in healthcare and communication.

Transitioning into the adult entertainment industry, Pixie has been driving inclusive narratives as a visionary for scene planning and starring or playing secondary characters in scenes. Beyond performance, she crafts content strategies that resonate widely, and mentors upcoming talents, especially within the LGBTQ community.

Her journey, enriched by varied interests and connections, fuels her storytelling. She values the human experience in every situation, whether in crisis intervention or scene creation. At its core, her creative energy strives for a society built on respect, understanding and authenticity.

Hazel Havoc

Chief Learning Officer

Hazel Havoc is a pro domme in the Portland area, specializing in impact and mentoring. Her biggest passions are flogging, whipping and teaching people these skills. If you’ve seen flogging in a Cliff Media scene, it’s often Hazel doing the throwing. Hazel’s favorite form of flogging is her signature four point florentine- a non stop barrage of flogs thrown in a seemingly never-ending loop. When not throwing flogs, Hazel has been applying her creative skills to script and direct Cliff Media scenes, mentor new directors, and develop educational curriculum. 

Hazel enjoys all forms of kink and BDSM but especially enjoys exploring the intersection of impact and emotional healing. Hazel believes with every hit of her whip, her subject descends further into healing subspace- shifting your conscious state with a flick of her wrist. Working with Hazel is an experience wrought with razor sharp intention, intense sensation, and focused attention.  This approach coalesces to create unique experiences as individual as the people in them. You’ll be brought back to life as your body pulses and pleasure courses through your veins.  You’ll feel every sense heightened, alert and ready- ready to feel alive, washed by erotic fire and left smoldering. 

Hazel is a native to the fiery volcanoes of the PNW, loves all things outdoors, and loves to feed her inner rockhound. She has been hiking the cascades since she was small, curiously inspecting every tree and turning over every rock. She is playful, curious and painfully accurate.

Zina Sofia

Executive Producer

Zina Sofia has been an adult model and content creator for several years. She brings her creative bent to bear in everything from scene planning and characterization to developing content strategies, as well as co-starring in many scenes.

Cultivating a space that is safe, kind and celebratory for all minds, bodies and sexualities is a dream for Zi. Being part of a community that fosters self-actualization through the beauty of human sexuality, connection, and sensuality is the dream come true. Reality is only the fantasies we believe in enough to build.

Outside of Cliff Media, Zina is a passionate kickboxer, songwriter, stargazer, and yogi.

Orion Pax III

Chief Video Officer

Orion films and edits videos produced by the collective vision of the group and provides graphic design and creative direction for digital materials. He loves the video editing process where the pieces of the filmed story come together as a final product.

On the set of shoots, Orion enjoys meeting people on the set of shoots. He's easy-going, pansexual, and kink-positive, and likes to make everyone feel as comfortable as possible during events and shoots.

Outside of shooting video and editing, Orion enjoys listening to and playing music, hanging out by the river, finding good craft beers, collecting vintage suitcases and living life to the fullest.

Ali immediately felt deeply at home when she arrived at her first Cliff Media shoot  - it is indeed the loving, sexy, sweet and supportive community of her dreams. 

She has worked so hard and for so long to arrive here with exuberant joy and a cracked-open heart full of love. She knows self-loathing, fear, anxiety and shame, and in facing these adversaries, she has (with the ongoing help of an amazing sex-positive, body-positive, kink-positive therapist) found healing, authenticity, beautiful friends and amazing sexual experiences. 

As Cliff Media’s Head Emotional Support Slut, Ali aims to help any anxious participants feel empathized with, welcome and wanted, seen and understood. She is also working to develop an ongoing aftercare community to hold space for us to maintain connection as we move between the bliss of interacting together to return to the other parts of our lives, and until we can gather again. 

Previous and concurrent iterations of Ali include: social work supporting individuals with disabilities, peer support provider for persons in recovery from substance addiction, burlesque performer, parent of one nonbinary person and one person with disabilities, tarot reading witch, traveler, cat lady.
