As the Founder and CEO of Bellesa, Michelle Shnaidman has been a noteworthy leader in the sex tech space for over seven years.

In 2016, Michelle founded the sexual wellness company Bellesa. Driven by a passion to destigmatize sex, Michelle’s mission was simple: empower women to embrace, explore and celebrate their sexuality- unapologetically. She launched the #1 ranking “porn by women” website bellesa.co in 2017, followed by the premium adult film subscription service Bellesa Plus; garnering awards for by-women adult studios Bellesa House and Bellesa Films along the way.

Energized and propelled by the core belief that women’s pleasure should be both normalized and accessible, Michelle launched Bellesa Boutique in 2018, which would go on to win Best Sex Toy Retailer by both XBIZ and AVN. Today, Michelle has grown Bellesa into one of the top sex toy retailers in North America.

When she is not disrupting the $37 Billion sex tech industry, Michelle can be found adventuring out in nature with her two Rottweilers.
