Emcees

Serafine (She/Her)

Serafine Sawyer (She/Her) Ms. San Diego Leather 2019 – A Dominant leather trans-woman. She was a San Diego Girls of Leather and Southland Title Sisters member. She has judged West Coast Olympus, Mr. Barracks, and the San Diego Cub contest and has taught at Leather Realm and Ravage. For her year as a title holder, she is focusing on Helping Kids in Crisis, as too many LGBTQ+ kids are having to focus on survival rather than on growing up.

Although she started this journey later in life, the support and acceptance she’s received from the leather community is why she has worked so hard to give back. She’s incredibly grateful for her two tile husbands – Jody and Pup Rowdy, for their support and dedication throughout their title year.

Whether dazzling in drag as Lady SinAGaga, Snatching the Crown of Miss Best in Drag 2026, or earning a spot in the IML Class of 46’s Top 20 as Mr. SoCal Leather 2023, one thing’s for sure … when Moshiel takes the stage, you’re in for a damn good time.
