Master Retro Bella

Master Retro Bella is a Latina High Femme Master and Leather woman from Bakersfield, California. Her pronouns are She/Her/Hers. She is the first woman to earn the title of 2023 Southwest Master and became the first person of Latin descent to hold the 2024 International Master title. She is passionate about Latinx/ne representation in M/s and Leather spaces. This passion fueled her to create the Latine Leather Pride flag, which debuted at South Plains Leatherfest in 2025, and to become the founder of Latinos in Leather. Recognized as one of the Onyx Pearls’ “Young 8,” she carries the pearl name Amara Pearl. Currently, Master Retro Bella curates the Latinx Queer Chronicles on Substack, which showcases the intersectionality of queerness and Latinidad.
