Hi, I’m Leigh White and I’m running for Waukee City Council. For more than 30 years I’ve been a small business owner, serving as Founder & CTO of Myriad Advisor Solutions for the past 17, and proudly calling Waukee home since 2012.

Entrepreneur Problem Solver Neighbor

As Founder & CTO of Myriad Advisor Solutions, I have always considered myself a problem solver, tech strategist, and small business advocate.

I’ve spent my career at the intersection of leadership and innovation. Over the years, I’ve launched three businesses, led eight, and successfully sold four. Today, as Founder & CTO of Myriad Advisor Solutions, I help small business owners grow strategically, stay compliant, and scale with confidence—experience I’ll bring to serving Waukee.

Myriad has grown for more than 17 years with less than 2% client attrition—a testament to building lasting relationships, not quick wins. That focus on stability and trust is the same approach I believe Waukee needs as we balance smart growth with strong community values.

I hold multiple certifications in technology and networking, but my proudest titles are mom and neighbor. My daughter Danielle is now my business partner, and my son serves his community as a teacher and Army Reserve veteran. We’ve called Waukee home since 2012, where I enjoy cycling, volunteering, and spending time outdoors with my two dogs.
