Leila de Bruyne is the co-founder of Flying Kites, a leadership school & teacher-training center in rural Kenya. A lifelong advocate for the power of education, Leila has raised more than $25 million to support critical services and expand opportunity for marginalized students, with a particular focus on girls.

As a writer, Leila's work has been featured in The New York Times, The Guardian, TED and Forbes. Her debut novel, Tits is a sultry and darkly funny exploration of desire, aging, and motherhood— somewhere between Wellness by Nathan Hill and a literary Fifty Shades of Grey
