Leslie Yeary

Leslie Yeary is a mom to two young boys, a teacher, writer, and musician. She earned her Bachelors of Arts in English with a Piano Theory minor from the University of Kentucky (Go Cats!). She is a proud alumnus of the prestigious University of Kentucky Women’s Choir, and she enjoyed singing in various acapella ensembles during her time there. She has a Masters in Teaching from Eastern Kentucky University and taught middle school language arts before having kids.

Always drawn back to music, Leslie has led various youth worship teams during her years of teaching. She is passionate about employing worship music to help others draw near to God and deepen their prayer life. She plays guitar, piano and wishes she could play the drums — her rhythm is fairly impeccable.

Leslie and her husband Josh are excited to serve, grow, and raise their boys in the wonderful community at Crestview.
