Leanne Ricchiuti is the sole-proprietor of Headline Media of Upstate New York, LLC. She's been telling clients' stories since 2017. After almost 15 years in television production and a decade of that time as an Assignment Editor at Spectrum News 1 Albany, a 24-hour statewide news source, Leanne entered the Public Relations sector at a local firm in Troy, N.Y., before joining a creative agency based in Albany, N.Y. The pandemic caused her to shift priorities and she started to focus on her own book of business. Her experience with storytelling, video production, editing, and producing provides her with the ingredients to effectively flesh out the most interesting stories a client has to share--and get them placed in the news.

Leanne generates over a million dollars annually in earned media value for clients through placed content in local, regional, national, and trade publications. Her large network of media contacts serves clients well to increase awareness of their business or cause. She is a graduate of Hofstra University, loves cats and Halloween, and lives in the Capital Region with her husband and son. Below is a list of verticals she has worked within.
