We’ve been working with Leslie on our community launch plan and have gone from a rough idea to a complete community strategy that is ready for prime time. Leslie’s experience with community, creating evangelists, and focusing on the human behind the member has already been a game changer for me and will continue to help us as we grow.

Leslie has helped build what is arguably the most successful B2B community of all time in Pavilion. If you're looking to build a community for your brand or company, there are very few that have the experience, knowledge, and skills that Leslie has. The next community I build will 100% be with Leslie's help.

James Winter

As we build Hatchet Ventures, an active and engaged community is a major advantage we want to bring to our portfolio companies and expert advisors. We hired Leslie because she brings a wealth of knowledge on building not only the structure and programs but also a sense of belonging that is so important to our founders.
