A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Thanks for stopping by, I’m Leigha.

Since I was young, I’ve had a love for both technology and art. It was this combination which drove me to graphic design. It was through a lot of hard work that I became any good at the two.

I’ve always been driven by intention in my work; it’s not enough that something simply looks good. My desire to learn and question pulled me towards the UX space. It’s here at the intersection of design and technology that I’ve found a real passion for complex problem solving.

Today, I work as a Product Designer. I enjoy it most when I’m collaborating with an ambitious group of people who are just as passionate about human-centered design and creative problem solving as I am.

Colleagues describe me as passionate, humble, a strong storyteller, and someone who’s great at both giving and receiving feedback. I love learning about new tools, methodologies, and best practices — and then sharing that knowledge with the people I work with.
