Leaha graduated from Cornell College in 2011 with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a chosen emphasis in the human services. Since graduating, she has worked for the Mentor Network as a DSP and ultimately became a team lead. Leaha later transitioned to System’s Unlimited, where she started as a DSP in the day-hab program and ultimately became a Coordinator. She is very proud that she has been able to serve individuals with disabilities, or as she likes to say — the “differently-abled” — for 11 years.

And now her journey continues with Discovery Living as a Community Living Coordinator. She feels very fortunate to have landed with an agency that will continue to nurture her dedication and passion to foster autonomy, dignity, and right to self-determination in the members we are lucky to serve.
