Leah founded Everyday Money Management in 2006 to serve people with disabilities, senior citizens, and those dealing with a life change such as a serious medical condition, divorce or loss of a spouse.

Leah’s work at the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) taught her that financial organization is a challenge for many people, particularly those with mental illness, intellectual disabilities and dementia. She is an organized person who loves to bring order to anything – especially paperwork – and believes that financial organization plays a key role in keeping her clients independent and secure.

Leah is the past president of the American Association of Daily Money Managers. She also volunteers as a Representative Payee for low income clients through EveryMind (formerly the Mental Health Association of Montgomery County).

Leah holds a degree in Cognitive Science from Brown University. She has lived in several cities in the US and overseas, including Jerusalem, Israel and Tokyo, Japan. Leah lives in Rockville, Maryland with her husband, Loren, and has two adult daughters.
