Leah Chase
Director of Partner Success
As Director of Partner Success, Leah Chase oversees the Professional Services team at Harris Education Solutions and its portfolio of products. Leah’s career started as an elementary school teacher in a district in Buffalo, NY when she realized how passionate she was about utilizing education software to help make her daily tasks easier in the classroom. Her passion for helping fellow educators find value in software that positively impacts student achievement led her to her 10 year career at eDoctrina before joining the HES team. Establishing long lasting relationships with district leads and going the extra mile to ensure all district interactions exceed expectations are two reasons why Leah is so excited to be working with the HES suite of products. Leah loves being a mom to two boys and is surviving on coffee and dry shampoo. Her closet is in order by color and she loves nothing more than fresh vacuum lines on her living room rug.
