Founded in late 2013, by Michelle Solorzano Daly, and Kelly West, out of the lack of spaces and places for lesbians to meet in Austin. Lesbutante and the Boss quickly grew to be known as THE destination for social lesbians in Austin and beyond. L&B host monthly dance parties on the second Friday of each month. L&B has added producing an annual all women resort take over in Texas called Plezzure Island to their list of events under WolfPack Productions, LLC with Gabby Ayala & Ashley Marshall. Lesbians Who Tech is a community of queer women in tech (and allies) that started in San Francisco in December 2012. Since then, we’ve built a community of over 20,000 queer women in 33 cities, including 5 international cities.
