Senior Associate
Leselle Vincent is a Senior Associate with the North America team at Centre for Public Impact.
She joined CPI in 2022.
Leselle was awarded an MPA in Development Practice at the School of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University, and a BSc in Environmental Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
Leselle is excited to start volunteering with the Covenant House, New Jersey, which directly serves homeless youth between the ages of 18-21.
Previously, she mentored underserved youth in Atlanta through leadership of the ENGAGES Engineering Track programme at Georgia Tech Research Institute and through volunteering with Thrive Youth Development Inc.
Leselle loves engaging with city leaders, hearing about the work that they do, and finding ways to impact the communities that they serve. While partnering with King County Metro, she was able to lead interviews with Metro staff and learn about their roles, challenges they face and opportunities to create value. These discussions helped Leselle and a systems mapping expert to piece together a map that demonstrated Metro’s complexity and areas where their operations could be improved.
In her leisure time, Leselle volunteers with the Covenant House, New Jersey, which directly serves unhoused youth between the ages of 18-21. Leselle loves to sing, explore new places, and take pictures of the world around her.
Some of Leselle’s work includes:
- Project management of Understanding the Transformative Potential of Grassroots Energy Solutions
- Contributed to Parks as Infrastructure
