“Leonardo’s extensive experience in the public and private sector, along with his passion for serving on numerous boards, make him a tremendous asset for the Arizona Community Foundation,” said Steve Evans, chair of the ACF Board of Directors, in a prepared statement.

“His unique professional experience combined with his knowledge of and passion for diverse Arizona communities will make him a very valuable board member, especially given ACF’s focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion.”
