About Leanna Gower

Hi, I’m Leanna, a storyteller at heart, a maker by nature, and someone who believes creativity can spark real change. Whether I’m designing, strategizing, or sewing by hand, I’m inspired by a love for film, creativity, sustainability, and meaningful connection. I\'ve always had an affinity for fashion, crafting, and storytelling, voted most likely to be a Fashion Designer in 4th grade, and serving as 4th grade class president. Currently pursuing a B.S. in Business Psychology and a B.A. in Communication (with a Marketing minor) at UC San Diego, I’ve since come a long way, and built a strong foundation in digital marketing, public relations, video production, graphic design, and collaborative leadership.I started off in high school journalism, where I discovered the magic of connecting people through my writing, and since then, I’ve grown passionate about bringing that same magic to my work in marketing.While I’m not set on one path post-grad, I see myself exploring a myriad of roles where I can bring creative ideas to life, whether it’s through designing sustainable products, connecting audiences with powerful media, building campaigns, or using my art to spark change, I’m excited to keep creating with purpose.
