A graduate of UCLA and UC Berkeley School of Law, Leah built her career advising executives, entrepreneurs, and growth-stage companies on complex business and commercial matters. Over the years, she saw firsthand how much time and opportunity leaders lose to manual processes, scattered systems, and the constant pressure to “do more with less.” That perspective inspired her to launch Elevate Forward.
