west & ease is a space for conversations with creatives, insights on design, and the moments that bring community to life.

I’m Leslie, and I’ve always been fascinated by how we interpret the world.

Through west & ease:

I host Conversations, where alongside my guests, we explore themes such as the creative process and identity.
Through Design, I share insights and practical guidance for designers to grow, lead, and make impact.
And with Community, I show the behind the scenes and reflect on creative events and gatherings.
