Before joining InvestmentNews, Leo spent years developing deep fluency in the language of financial professionals, giving him an instinct for what matters to advisors and their clients alike.

Outside the newsroom, he's a runner (one marathon down, one more on the horizon), a singer, a dance enthusiast, a cyclist, and an audiobook devotee – sometimes all at once.
