Growing up I could never pin down what I wanted to be... Because, well I wanted to be everything all at once: artist, writer, fashion designer, dancer and all while travelling the globe. A light bulb moment happened in high school; when I got the chance to redesign our cheerleading uniform. A spark ignited the moment I was surrounded by a bunch of people wearing my creation; something that had started as an idea in my head!
Fast forward and I found myself in my early 30's working in a job I wasn't passionate about, trying to get a fashion label off the ground and generally pretty unhappy - I just wasn't where I thought I'd be by that point in my life.
COVID and my soon-to-be Mum status, were the catalyst for me taking the plunge into entrepreneurship. I quit my day job and relaunched my business as a design and branding consultancy.
Finally, I found the creative and financial freedom I'd been craving! And the cherry on top: I get to be creative while helping other change-makers shine! Suddenly the mash up of skills, acquired over what I'd thought of as a meandering career, have proven to be the secret sauce for Leithal & Co. Design. My studies in creative writing, love of psychology, bachelor of design and many years' marketing experience in real estate mean, I bring a truly diverse skillset to the table - although, not the Liam Neeson kind!
