Woodhull Freedom Foundation's Ricci Joy Levy to Guest on 'Sex Tech Connect' Sunday

LOS ANGELES — Ricci Joy Levy, CEO of the Woodhull Freedom Foundation, will appear as a special guest of "Sex Tech Connect" on Sunday, June 28. The teleconferencing event series is organized by the recently formed networking group for the sextech and adult retail industries, and professionals involved with sexuality research, journalism and the arts.

The group meets Sundays at 1 p.m. (PDT) for "Virtual Brunch, Happy Hour or Late Night Drink." Recent guests have included Colin Rowntree, Lora Haddock DiCarlo and Buck Angel.

Shakun Sethi, founder and CEO of Tickle.life, is the co-founder of "Sex Tech Connect" with adult industry attorney Maxine Lynn and will moderate the June 28 meetup.

The Woodhull Freedom Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization devoted to education and public advocacy in support of the principle that consensual sexual expression is a fundamental human right.

"I'm delighted to have this opportunity to talk about sexual freedom, human rights and the work of my organization," Levy enthused. "Let’s talk about it together this coming Sunday."

Sethi founded Tickle.life as a safe, inclusive, judgment-free platform to showcase resources for sexual and mental wellness and as a bridge between the sextech industry and their audiences.

Lynn described Sethi as "an avid supporter" of the "Sex Tech Connect" group from the start.

"As a kick-ass sextech founder, she makes the perfect person to partner with as we grow this community of impactful voices," said Lynn.

Sethi enthused about creating a vibrant community to "share insights and talk about our challenges and how we can grow together. This is about making one big group of like-minded people, and taking the work and innovation in the realm of sexuality and sexual wellness forward," she said.
