Leah is a Content Marketer Manager at Optimizely, championing the possibilities of Optimizely Opal and the new AI era of marketing. Forever a writing obsessive (truly, since dinosaur-era gel pens), her career has zig-zagged through magazines, agencies, and start-ups before landing in tech…and she’s not looked back since.

Fueled by a curiosity and a love for turning “wait, what does that even mean?” concepts into engaging, educational stories, Leah can usually be found tap-tapping away, diving into data, or happily disappearing down a research rabbit hole.
