Charly Leetham

Charly Leetham has been building things that work for 40+ years. She earned her amateur radio license at 13 and by her early 20s had an Associate Diploma in Electronic Engineering. By 30, she’d completed an MBA while working full-time and raising young children. She’s worked across tech in roles from field technician to client relationship manager. At 40, she bought and ran franchises; when they failed and left her $1 million in debt, she started over and founded Ask Charly Leetham.

For nearly two decades, Charly has delivered website development, hosting, email, branding, and IT support to small businesses. Many clients have stayed with her for over 12 years because she listens, solves problems, and shows up. She still works with systems, turning complex tech into plain language and practical solutions. Charly hosts Rise and Shine, Your Business Tech Boost, a podcast with guidance on what works, what doesn’t, and what it takes to build something that lasts.
