Alpha Pup Dikaia, PhD first got involved in the Ohio leather and furry communities in 2018 and has since become an avid kink educator and outspoken community leader. As Mr. Ohio Leather 2024, he has found and mentored many up-and-coming leather leaders while being a vocal opponent of nepotism in leather communities. Drawing on his roots in academia, he has also worked to provide high-quality and accessible education regarding leather, kink, and fetish to learners of all knowledge levels, including several educational sessions at Cleveland Leather Annual Weekend (CLAW) and the International Puppy and Trainer Contest (IPTC). He currently serves as a Newcomer Events Manager and Pet Events Manager for CLAW and founded a monthly kink discussion group at the Case Western Reserve University LGBT Center. He is a proud member of the Rangers, the Iron Eagles, Midnight Howl, HOIST, the Conductors, and the Windy City Pups and Handlers. He also produces the Ohio Bear and Mr. Leather Akron title contests with his boyfriend and beta pup, Atlas. Dikaia firmly believes that the leather, kink, and fetish communities should be accessible to all and advocates that new community members be welcomed regardless of their level of experience or gear ownership. He is also quite proud to be the first Mr. Ohio Leather to wear the title sash in the Anthrocon Fursuit Parade! When he's not out at community events, you can likely find him at your local golf course or nearest Skyline Chili.
