Skills & Education Presenter


Pawlish, International Mr. Bootblack 2017, is a boofer passionate about learning and mentorship, fostered by his years at a particularly "fruity" company. After 18 moves across 3 continents, what he's learned is to stay hungry, and working in IT for a Bay Area startup fits that bill... for now. That hunger also persists when it comes to Leather & kink, where he loves discussing social impact and challenging others' perspectives. Red, houndstooth, and navy, all on the left, are his favorite hankies, but don't be afraid to ask about others! You can find him wagging away while putting a shine to a boot, snacking on whatever he's recently baked. Pawlish lives in Cincinnati with his husband, Bamm-Bamm.
