It is rare to meet someone who makes you want to be better by just being around them. When I first met Leslie, I knew for sure that I could work FOR her one day. And I'm easily 20 years her senior. She's bold, dynamic, passionate and deeply driven. I feel better knowing that our world is populated by people like Leslie.
