Lee Czechowski

Aanii, hello!

My name is Leigham, you can call me Lee, and my pronouns are they/them. I'm mixed settler/Anishnaabe and I grew up in Belleville, Ontario. 

In a previous life, I worked as an accountant and logistics administrator for a large tech company. After too many years, I realized that my passions for harm reduction and reproductive justice, along with my desire to work with queer and trans families, people who use drugs, people who are houseless, and people with "unconventional" family structures did not quite fit into a corporate setting, and midwifery was an easy leap to take.

I started my midwifery journey at Laurentian University, where I was minoring in Anishinaabemowin, with a focus on rural, remote, and Indigenous birth work. I then graduated from Toronto Metropolitan University with distinction in 2023.

In my down-time, I love to cross stitch, spend time with my niblings, watch documentaries, and travel. 

It is a great honour to be here at SGMT, and I look forward to supporting you through this exciting transition in your life!
