LeAnna DeBaptiste Hallman (Vice- Chair)

LeAnna grew up in her family funeral business in West Chester, Pennsylvania. She has been a storyteller since a small child when she wrote obituaries for the local newspaper.

Her love of storytelling took her to Los Angeles almost 15 years ago where she found success in building a family, a career in entertainment, and a fierce reputation advocating for marginalized communities.

LeAnna has spent the last 6 years at Sony Pictures in a variety of positions, but mostly with the Finance Transformation team working with quirky accountants to make business processes more efficient. She has recently joined the Regulatory Compliance team at Netflix where she looks forward to leaning into risk.

In her free time LeAnna is currently developing a funeral app, a Pinterest for funerals if you will.

If she could know anything about you it would be, “What would your last meal be?“
