Leslie was born in Fayetteville, AR, and graduated from the University of Arkansas, where she got a degree in Landscape Architecture in 2005. Over the course of her nearly 20-year career, Leslie has worked on many local projects at various local firms and has watched NWA grow and change. What EDG offers in terms of ecologically sensitive design is particularly inspiring to Leslie.
Leslie joined EDG in September of 2023, where she currently works as a licensed landscape architect.
"As Ian McHarg says, 'Let us green the earth, restore the earth, heal the earth' , EDG is the first firm I have been lucky enough to be a part of where I believe we can do just that."
