Leigh Smith

Financial Advisor

At the heart of everything she does, Leigh wants clients’ financial decisions to feel less confusing and stressful. A natural translator of complex ideas, she turns financial jargon into practical, empowering conversations. Whether she’s teaching a class, guiding a client, or building something new, Leigh’s focus is simple: helping people feel confident about their next step.

Born and raised in Athens, Georgia, Leigh graduated from the UGA Honors Program, founded the Wealth Academy of Georgia, and has been a lifelong advocate for financial education. Over the course of her career, she has served as CMO, COO, and CEO within the financial services industry. She holds the CLU® and ChFC® designations, as well as her Series 65 license, and currently serves as a financial advisor with Insight Folios, Inc. combining deep expertise with a deeply human approach.

When she’s not working, you’ll likely find her with family, on the Firefly Trail, in a kayak, or lost in a great book. (Got any good recommendations for me?)
