I know Leanne to be a passionate advocate for her cause in general and the client with whom she works in particular. She is a knowledgeable resource for downtown development and is well networked in that community. She has a relaxed style backed by a hard-nosed approach and she is results oriented and well able to negotiate any professional challenge.

Leanne is generous and gracious in sharing her wisdom, experience, expertise about developing, enriching and expanding sustainable Downtown organizations in Vermont. You can rely on Leanne to give you the scoop, provide resources and encourage you to become a stronger leader. Leanne is a precious asset to the State of Vermont because of her dedication to enhancing the Vermont Downtown program and as one of the executive directors she works with I appreciate and applaud her work.
