Through the Sine Institute, Leigh worked for John Tass-Parker who is the head of Politics and Government at Instagram. Under his mentorship, she learned about the role of social media in the 2020 election and helped plan community events to learn more about the way social media impacts elections.

From 2016-2019, Leigh worked in both a district and federal congressional office. Creating the West Texas Warrior initiative, supporting campaign goals, and interfacing with constituents.
