Meet Kyleigh Leddy
But, like most writers, she grappled with self-doubt and the need for stability. These challenges often tested her resolve to pursue her writing. She fostered her other interests, keeping practicality in mind, and studied psychology at Boston College before completing a Master of Social Work at Columbia.
