About Benito Leyva

Standing at the cross section of always learning and brilliant insights. I’m passionate about the complicated and emboldened by the challenge of communicating it simply. Fascinated by how technology moves and shapes our world, and fortunate to experience and tell others about it firsthand. I’ve spent years cultivating an understanding of aerospace and defense, getting nerdy in the world of semiconductors and data centers, and jumping into unique experiences across everything from payments security to smart city infrastructure. Doing it here at home and in partnership with global teams.I\'m now a Senior Technology Communications Manager supporting LinkedIn\'s Data and AI organization, where I get to dig in and partner with engineers, experts and leaders to smartly craft the narrative around LinkedIn\'s Data and AI work and help communicate it simply to those both inside and outside of LinkedIn. I’m one of the lucky ones that gets to set the foundation for impactful stories with influential publications about the people and tech that makes our world great.
