Leslie Farin

Graphic Designer / Web Designer

Leslie worked in health care before making a career change to graphic art and web design. She started her career in 1983 as a registered dietitian. After obtaining experience and a Master of Public Health degree, she transitioned into the wellness field. Self-employed as a wellness consultant, Leslie had the opportunity to design numerous marketing materials for her health and wellness programs. Creating logos, brochures and newsletters quickly became the favorite part of her job. As a parent, Leslie became involved in the PTA at her children’s schools where she created the school newsletter on a semi-monthly basis and served as the yearbook editor. These experiences, combined with an artistic flair and excellent computer skills, prompted Leslie to pursue her Webmaster Certification.
