Leslie's signature clear and sultry tones, expansive range and expressive delivery defy categorization, expertly lending themselves to a diverse repertoire befitting any performance atmosphere—WEDDING CEREMONIES, RECEPTIONS, CORPORATE EVENTS to AMPHITHEATER CONCERTS.

Honed through formal classical training at Howard University-College of Fine Arts, Leslie’s gift has taken center stage in historic U.S. platforms such as Cleveland’s Severance Hall, Harlem’s famed Apollo Theater, and the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC. She has also performed in historic venues in Toyko, Japan, St. Thomas Virgin, Islands and Barcelona, Spain.

Leslie has performed in both Presidential Inaugurations for former President William Clinton. During those events, she's shared the stage with such greats as Luther Vandross, Diana Ross, Bebe & Cece Winans, Kathleen Battle and many others. She has also performed at the United States Naval Observatory (Vice President's home) for former Vice President Al Gore and his wife Tipper Gore at several intimate celebrations and holiday affairs during his term. She has also lended her vocals as a background singer for Al Jarreau, and most recently for Meli'sa Morgan, Alyson Williams and Christopher Williams. Leslie performed for 7 years on Washington DC's local dinner/brunch cruise line, Odyssey Cruises as one of the lead vocalist with the fantastic Chane Link Band. Since her relocation to Charlotte, NC, she has performed in and around the Charlotte area as a solo artist. She has delivered the Black National Anthem at Time Warner Arena for the 2010 & 2011 Kick-off celebration of the Annual CIAA Tournament.

Leslie currently has the pleasure of performing with her signature band, "LESLIE & FRIENDS". The band performs mainly as a 4 piece, but is definitely affective as a DUO, TRIO or QUARTET.
