“Lea is an extraordinary leader, thought partner, and systems thinker. What sets her apart is her unwavering commitment to curiosity and context. Rather than rushing to fix a problem, Lea takes the time to truly understand it—dissecting its roots, examining the perspectives involved, and considering the broader ecosystem in which it lives. Her ability to hold complexity while asking the right questions creates the conditions for thoughtful, lasting solutions. Working with Lea means collaborating with someone who not only sees the big picture but also knows how to move toward it with clarity, intention, and care.”
