You can always find Lesley on a field, a court, a set, a carpet, a racetrack, the ice, a Broadway stage, in a TV studio, in a kitchen – name a venue - Lesley is there doing interviews, getting the story. She has had a wealth of experience working with professional athletes and A-list celebrities across the country on the red carpet, backstage, in the studio and on the sidelines.

Born and raised in New York, Lesley began her career in NYC as an intern for Live! Regis & Kathie Lee, The Howard Stern Show and Fox After Breakfast.
