A perennial top producing broker, Leslie has won numerous awards both nationally and regionally. Best described as an energetic, hardworking and dedicated mortgage professional; Leslie seeks to connect with people and his community. His tireless work ethic and strong family values were instilled while growing up in a rural Newfoundland community of less than 100 people.

When not working, Leslie volunteers with various non-profit and community groups, which include being a member of the Board of Directors for Habitat for Humanity Newfoundland and Labrador, and the local chapter of Brokering Wishes, which raises funds to help grant wishes to local children living with life-threatening illnesses, among many other initiatives.
During any free time, Leslie spends it with his wife Jennifer, his son Lincoln, and dog, Lily in their home in Outer Cove, and either playing sports or spending time in the great outdoors.
