Leslie Burkitt

I am an Advertising Sales Professional, specializing in Planning and Strategy. I have worked for Discovery Networks for the past 6 years, handling national advertising and sponsorships for multi-million dollar accounts such as Pep Boys, Ashley Furniture, Carnival Cruise Line and Little Debbie. On the weekends I enjoy working in local area farmers markets vending peaches and helping with the Marketing and PR for Pearson Farm. Prior to my current job, I worked for an Advertising Agency handling the buying for accounts such as AT&T, DirecTV and ESPN. I started my career and life in Atlanta with Creative Loafing Newspaper as an Account Executive.

In my spare time, I enjoy volunteering at PAWS Animal Shelter, cooking, reading and spending time with my dog Parker.
