I’m Leigh!
A bilingual, punk rock, pixie queen. I cut my performance teeth in Germany, where I was raised by my hippie American Mom, Ruth, and Rock ‘n Roll loving German Dad, Klaus.
Want to know more about my Transcontinental story?
For almost 10 years in NYC I’ve premiered new works, been the leading lady, the funny sidekick, the cool mom, and have even commandeered a puppet or two. I have also discovered new loves and work in film, television and voice over acting.
I have found my strength in this industry is my versatility, the experience and compassion that comes from a long career, and a healthy sense of humor (mostly laughing at myself).
In my life I’ve been a bartender (a huge asset on contract if you ask me), a manager, a dog mom, a wife, and currently, a personal trainer. I have loved all these roles, especially the last three, but my heart belongs in playing all the beautiful, complicated, lovely roles the performance industry has to offer.
