Meet Leo

Hello!

For as long as I can remember, I’ve dreamed of becoming a parent. As a 33-year-old gay man, I knew my path to parenthood might be different from others, but that didn’t make my desire to be a father any less strong. I’ve always believed that family is built on love, and that’s the kind of family I want to give to a child — one filled with warmth, care, and unwavering support.

After graduating from Clemson University, I moved to Charlotte, NC, where I’ve built a successful career in banking. While I’m proud of the professional life I’ve created, there has always been one missing piece — the joy of parenthood. Over the years, I’ve thought a lot about how to make this dream a reality, and after much reflection, I’ve made the decision to pursue surrogacy.

Surrogacy isn’t just a way to become a parent; it’s an opportunity to bring a child into the world with intention, love, and a sense of community. I’m incredibly fortunate to have the full support of my family and friends, who have been by my side every step of the way, cheering me on as I take this important step. They’re just as excited as I am for the day I can hold my child in my arms, and their love and encouragement mean the world to me.

I recognize that surrogacy is a deeply generous and selfless gift, and I am profoundly grateful to the woman who will help make this dream a reality. For me, this journey is not just about bringing a child into the world — it's about creating a nurturing, loving home where my child will always feel valued, supported, and surrounded by a community that will love them unconditionally.

As I move forward on this journey, I feel nothing but excitement and gratitude. I can’t wait to welcome my child into this world and show them all the love and joy I have to give. I’m beyond thankful to be on this path, and to know that I’ll have the support of my family, my friends, and a future that’s full of love.

I’m very excited and looking forward to meeting you!

With heartfelt appreciation,

Leo
