Senior Marketing and PR Manager at DesignMyNight, Leighanne has been a member of our team for a decade - publishing pieces in The Week, The Independent, Cosmopolitan, HELLO!, Grazia, and Women's Health.

She's turned her passion for the hospitality industry into a marketing career here in London after years working in restaurants and dabbling in journalism for her university paper. Leighanne uses that wealth of knowledge across must-read guides, social media, and dynamic campaigns with the likes of Warner's Gin, CoppaFeel! and Whitebox - one of which won an award in the 2024 UK Digital PR Awards. Also a Cocktails In The City Judge and award-winning campaign manager, she'll likely be found drinking an Irish coffee in Swift.
