Leo has five years of experience in digital development, and nearly a decade in the international development sector. He most recently worked as the Civic Tech Lead at Creative Associates, where he served as an SME and advocate for incorporating meaningful technologies that promoted civic participation, digital rights, and open government. He began his career as a recruiter at Chemonics International before transitioning to project management and operations.
