A Naples, Florida native, Leila attended the Savannah College of Art and Design in Atlanta, Georgia.
The charm and history of Savannah called soon after however, and she's now pursuing a degree in writing at SCAD Savannah where she's also a staff editor for the school's newspaper. The Connect Savannah contributor says "I’ll never stop being a reader, but typing up my own content is a treat!"
Leila has always prioritized health and wellness in her daily routine through yoga, meditation, and other self-care practices.
