Leah is a Senior Communications Specialist at FedEx Office who enjoys traveling, reading, being creative with home and craft projects, and playing with her two dogs, Lucy and Lola. One day soon, she hopes to start making a dent in her life’s to-do list, including visiting all 50 U.S. states (16 down!). Until then, she’s working on a plan to double the size of her closet and trying to convince her husband they need a pool to survive these sweltering Texas summers.
