Early life
editSunderland planned to become a counselor or an accountant, but eventually lost interest in doing traditional office jobs.[4] During college she worked at a diner in Lebanon, Oregon.[5]
Career
editSunderland signed up for a webcam site in October 2014 and made hundreds of dollars per day.[4] She was suggested by a user to perform in a public place to earn more money and used the Oregon State University library facility, where she exposed her breasts and masturbated. An unknown person recorded the video and uploaded it to Pornhub, where it subsequently went viral. Due to the circumstances, she did not expect to use her real name in her pornographic career.[6] The University later expelled her and banned her from campus; the cam website also banned her and she faced criminal charges for public indecency and a fine of over $6,000. She pleaded guilty to the charges and paid a $1,000 fine.[7] Her parents stopped paying her tuition once she dropped out of school.[6]
She moved to Los Angeles, California, to have a professional career in pornography. She won a fan award for "Nicest Tits" at the inaugural Pornhub Awards in 2018,[8] for which rapper Kanye West made sweatshirt merchandise.[9] In 2023, her contract with Vixen Media Group ended and she began performing as a free agent for other companies.[10]
In December 2020, Sunderland's Instagram account with 2.2 million followers was taken offline after she posted several topless photos of herself, along with a message alleging having had sexual relations with Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri.[11]
In August 2024, she was arrested in Texas for possession of less than one ounce of cannabis, but 2 months later the charges were dismissed. In Sunderland's home state of Nevada, possession of small amounts of cannabis is legal.[12]
