In someone else's story, in some other universe. Now she spends her days immersed in fantastical, dark, and thrilling tales. She's been behind the microphone for more than thirty years, working in radio as well as on commercial voice-over projects. Her theater and improv experience bring risk-taking, emotion, and depth to her performances. She loves learning accents and languages-currently, French! When not narrating, Leanne explores the ""real"" world with hikes into the wild and dangerous culinary experiments."
