She completed her Post Graduate Certificate in Higher Education Teaching in 2002 and became a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
Leeanne joined the University of Aberdeen as part of the clinical skills team in 2014 and now she leads the Undergraduate clinical skills team and professionalism in the medical programme.
