The RKF mission is to help bring sustainable community transformation through arts-based impact investing. Through her philanthropy, Leslie brings an entrepreneurial triple threat advantage to projects by combining experience and skills as an entrepreneur, manager, and as a vocal and instrumental artist. With the Covid-19 pandemic brought unprecedented human isolation. Enabling innovative arts-based models that promote community-wide resilience is both timely and compelling. Leslie’s passion to serve Fort Wayne stems from a desire to give back to the community that gave her an enriched and grounded childhood experience. She has held executive level positions, served as a Director on numerous boards both in Texas and Indiana, and is currently working on her Doctorate in Global Leadership.
