Bio:
After graduating with a degree in communications and a minor in psychology from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Leila first got her start at IRETA working as an intern, before rejoining the team as a full-time staff member. During her absence, Leila spent a year working for a research group at the University of Pittsburgh, focusing on substance use and social media’s influences on mental health and societal attitudes. If you’ve spent time with IRETA’s website, blog posts, newsletters, or Facebook page, you’ve seen Leila’s work. That’s only a partial picture of Leila’s projects at IRETA. No two weeks are the same, a fact that Leila appreciates.
