I was fortunate enough to work under Leigh as a business project specialist. Leigh is very knowledgeable and professional in all of her interactions. As a manager she is supportive and strongly invested in developing her team. She listens and provides opportunities for the team to grow and learn. While working with Leigh I saw her be aligned to different projects requiring different skill sets and she succeeded in each one. She is an excellent project manager and an even better people manager. I am so appreciative that I had the opportunity to work with and learn from her.
