Leah is proud to be a 2014 Ecuador alum of Global Citizen Year. She comes to Global Citizen Year from the theater world, where she worked as a company manager. Over the past year, she has also been a people ops, strategy, and operations consultant for small arts organizations. She completed a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre & Drama Studies and Cultural Studies at McGill University in Montreal and now lives in Brooklyn, NY. She grew up in Arlington, MA.
