A clip recently posted to the BehindKINK site detailing the first on camera appearance of Luke Degre, local Dominant/Performance artist and apprentice to Lew Rubens (Kink.com Bondage Consultant) for the last year.

''I'm excited to say the very least! Lew Rubens has helped me in more ways than I could have hoped for. I'm flattered to be featured with him in a Behind Kink update. Behind Kink is a free site and anyone can comment. I would greatly appreciate all the positive feed back I can get there!'' says Degre.

Degre hopes to come on board Kink.com as a full-time staff member, which would make him the third person Rubens has helped to achieve their dream of a career in the Industry.
