Leila Sade is a U.S. Navy veteran and the Founder & CEO of My Story Archive, PBC, a platform dedicated to preserving autobiographies, stories, and the richness of human experience. Her work centers on preserving lived history and helping others honor and preserve their own truth.

Though a lifelong poet, musician, and performer, she is not an artist by trade. Music is how she processes experience, emotion, and identity — and one of the ways she puts mission into action by telling her own story.

Using AI as a tool, Leila Sade leans into songwriting, production, and creative direction & authorship to create intimate, imperfect, and honest work. Her debut album The In-Between explores identity, invisibility, love, and survival through songs about breaking, healing, and learning to speak even when no one is listening.
