Hi, I'm Leslie!
Based in Washington D.C., I have had the privilege of spending almost a decade shaping the narrative of live television at C-SPAN. My career has been defined by a commitment to excellence in television production and a deep understanding of the newsroom, government affairs, and unbiased journalism.
I believe that every broadcast is an opportunity to connect with the public especially as the lead producer of C-SPAN's call in show, Washington Journal. From managing complex control room operations to ensuring seamless transitions between live segments, I bring a sophisticated approach to every project I undertake.
When I'm not in the newsroom, you can find me on the river. Journalism is my first love, and rowing is my second.
