I'm an intimacy coordinator, director, and producer based in Los Angeles, originally from Budapest, Hungary. My family and I moved to the US when I was a child, settling in Northern California. As an adult, I crisscrossed the US and Canada, adapting to new places and cultures. I think, because I started life not speaking the language of my new homeland, I quickly discovered the power of visual storytelling. I’ve always been drawn to film and knew early on it would be my career.  

My journey began at UNLV, where I earned a film degree and immersed myself in production. In college, I began by interning at our local PBS affiliate's broadcast studio. That gave me all the skills I needed to produce promotional spots for Canadian television which led to opening a broadcast licensing company catering to the Canadian market in 2007. After many years of sitting behind a desk doing media management and deliverables,  my creative itch led me back to set. I have filled almost every role one can have in creating content and have a comprehensive understanding of what it takes to tell a story on camera.

 

“I don’t think having an intimacy coordinator is even a choice anymore,” Stone told NPR. “I think in the past five years, the industry has changed a lot for the better. Having her there felt like having both a safety net and a choreographer and a handhold. She and I would text after a day of doing some of these scenes and just sort of say how we were feeling and what was going on. And it was just this really beautiful relationship that I found extremely, extremely meaningful.”

My husband and I opened Mission Control Studio in Las Vegas in 2012 and that’s when the fun really started. A few years prior, in 2009, one of the studios we represented for broadcast asked my husband to direct one of their adult films. He became an overnight success. I contributed by designing sets and costumes and doing the visual effects and compositing. In addition to helping him, I freelanced on reality TV shoots, live-to-tape sporting events, and live events. We eventually opened our own production company and made about 80 films while at Mission Control Studio. I directed many of those projects in recent years. I also produced a (safe-ish for work) independent horror movie. 

Unfortunately, COVID led to the closure of the studio. I spent the pandemic years in Vancouver, Canada. My husband and I pivoted our company to sell naughty gift items. After spending even more time behind a desk doing graphic design and bookkeeping for our successful new venture, once again production called to me. I navigated the COVID era managing testing protocols for large reality productions, a role that is thankfully winding down.

Now I’m back again in LA. Intimacy coordination has become a recent addition to my skill set. With a robust background in production and a passion for authentic storytelling, I am uniquely equipped for this consent-forward work. In the adult film industry, I prioritized performer safety and comfort long before it became a mainstream topic in Hollywood. I believe Hollywood is catching up to the conversations about consent and boundaries that have long been standard in adult production. It's an honor to contribute to changing norms and creating safer environments for actors, enabling directors to authentically portray beautiful and intimate stories.
