Hi there! I'm Leah.

I've been working on product teams since 2018 in the fast-paced world of startups and scale ups. This has taught me to strike a balance between rigor and agility.

I approach my work with a deep sense of curiosity, which has activated two of my greatest strengths: listening and asking thoughtful questions.

This approach has helped me discover where people, products and businesses converge, which has unlocked short and long-term product strategies on the teams I work with.

​

When I'm not at my desk, you'll find me on the sand volleyball courts in Missoula, walking local trails with my dog Scout (usually while listening to Lenny’s Podcast or catching up on pop culture), or doodling things that make me laugh in my personal Figma file.​​​​​
