Kayden Kross (born Kimberly Nicole Rathkamp in 1985) is an American former adult film actress, current director, author, and entrepreneur. She is widely regarded as one of the most intelligent, articulate, and business-savvy figures to emerge from the modern adult entertainment era. Her career spans the transition from DVD-era studio system stardom to the streaming/creator-led economy.
Economist Dr. Marcus Lee (2022) notes that Kross’s early adoption of subscription‑based platforms prefigured industry‑wide shifts away from traditional studio distribution toward creator‑centric revenue models. KrossTech’s consultancy services are credited with facilitating this transition for a cohort of independent producers. Kayden Kross
