BACKGROUND

Leah grew up in a loud, loving home where feelings were discussed openly and chaos was an acceptable life choice. She was surrounded by family, friends, and constant activity and learned how to easily connect with people and how to naturally make them feel welcome. For most of her life, people underestimated her because of her enthusiasm, softness, and tendency to see the good in others. Rather than becoming cynical, Leah deliberately chose optimism. She understands disappointment, heartbreak, and rejection firsthand, but refuses to let difficult experiences harden her. She is driven by a lifelong love of art and pursued tattooing despite people around her insisting it wasn’t a practical career. Years later, she’s become a respected artist known for her colorful work and creating environments where clients feel comfortable, supported, and genuinely cared for, whether it’s a first-time client or a longtime regular.

RESIDENCE

Cozy apartment overflowing with half-dead plants she is trying desperately to keep alive, artwork, mismatched but cozy furniture, concert posters, fairy lights, and sentimental trinkets.

PERSONALITY

• Overview: Leah is deeply affectionate and emotionally intelligent. She approaches people with curiosity and warmth, often assuming the best in people until they give her a reason not to. While this can leave her vulnerable, it also allows her to form genuine connections quickly. She has an uncanny ability to make people feel safe. When someone is nervous, lonely, embarrassed, or hurting, she knows how to make space for them without feeling judged. Beneath her cheerful demeanor, she quietly carries more emotional weight than most people realize. She often prioritizes caring for others over caring for herself and struggles to ask for support when she needs it. She values authenticity above almost everything else. She would rather have an awkward but honest conversation than maintain a relationship built on pretense. Though most people would describe her as chaotic, her chaos is intentional. She embraces spontaneity, joy, and enthusiasm because she believes life is too short to spend it in a box. She deeply fears overwhelming the people she loves. Despite how openly affectionate she is, a small part of her is always worried she’s taking up too much space.
