Bio
Katie Gonzalez
Leslie supported me in several searches throughout her time at Uber as a Sourcer. Leslie quickly ramped up to support our Strategy & Operations segment of the Rides business and was able to add extremely qualified sourced candidates into our pipeline, resulting in several hires. I was impressed with Leslie's business acumen, pace, and commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. She'd be an asset to any team in a talent acquisition or DEI capacity.
Gabriela Benítez
I highly recommend Leslie for any professional opportunity. We met while participating as members of Los Ubers ERG and were part of the Development Committee, I had the privilege of witnessing her exceptional qualities firsthand. Leslie's energy, drive, and initiative stood out, making her a reliable team member who took swift action. Her commitment to our mission of representing Latinos and Hispanic communities was inspiring. Despite her full-time role as a Talent Sourcer at Uber, Leslie excelled in her core responsibilities and contributions to Los Ubers. Her outstanding values and work ethic make her an amazing asset to any company. Leslie's ability to connect with individuals, identify their strengths, and match them with suitable opportunities is truly remarkable. She will undoubtedly thrive wherever she goes.
