Hello! I'm Ariel Leigh Cohen (she/her), a professional Intimacy Coordinator and Director based in Los Angeles. With mentorship from industry leaders like Marcus Watson and Ashley H. White, I’ve honed my craft in creating safe, inclusive, and emotionally authentic intimate moments across film, TV, and theater.

I bring over 10 years of experience in the entertainment industry, starting in New York City. There, I worked as a Props Designer on Broadway, a Director Off-Off Broadway, and wore many other hats—actor, singer, sketch comedian, playwright, and artisan. This diverse background has given me a unique understanding of how to approach intimate moments on screen and stage with a deep respect for the story and the performers involved.

Since relocating to Los Angeles in 2019, I’ve found my true calling as an Intimacy Professional. My expertise includes staging period pieces, queer intimacy, kink, and comedic moments, all within a safe, respectful, and culturally competent environment. I’m committed to fostering a professional atmosphere where creativity thrives and every intimate scene is handled with care.

Whether you’re working on a film, TV series, or theater production, I’m here to provide professional, compassionate, and culturally sensitive guidance, ensuring every intimate moment is thoughtfully staged and leaves a lasting impact.
