The awards ceremony, presented by Pornhub, took place at the historic Avalon Theatre in West Hollywood, where the industry gathered to celebrate exceptional talent and accomplishments.


After receiving her trophy, Dusti expressed her gratitude, saying, “I was so excited to win this. I had been nominated a few different times but really didn’t expect to win.” The Best Self Producer award follows an already impressive list of achievements, including two additional TEA nominations for Best New Face, and Best Internet Personality, as well as placing as a finalist in the ManyVids Awards for Trans Creator of the Year.

It’s such a huge award, with some of the biggest name in the business having stood here before. I'm incredibly humbled, but also thankful and appreciative of all my fans and the Trans Erotica Awards! Thank you so much!

Acknowledging the support of her collaborators and studio partners, Dusti emphasized her excitement and a renewed commitment for the future. “Winning this award is a tremendous honor and validation of the effort I’ve put into my self-produced work. With this recognition, I’m ready to focus on stepping in front of the camera more in 2024, bringing even more confidence and creativity to new projects.”

Having been known mainly as a bottom, Dusti is now stepping into her “switch era.” Dusti plans to continue pushing boundaries while seeking bold, high-energy collaborations and professional opportunities in Arizona as well as Las Vegas and L.A., her homes away from home.

Off the set, Dusti finds balance in activities like Pilates, caring for her plants, and spending time with her two cats. She approaches her downtime with passion and curiosity, just as she does her professional craft.
