2022 Up and Comers Honoree: Caitlin Leahy

Growing up in Delray Beach, Caitlin Leahy moved to NYC to attend New York University Stern, where she received her BS & MS in Accounting. After 13 years of city life, Leahy moved back to South Florida with her husband and is loving life as a newlywed. No matter where she is, Leahy prides herself on volunteering and being an integral part of the community. She is so happy to be back in Florida and welcomed into the Fort Lauderdale family.

After graduating from NYU, Leahy started her career as a CPA at Deloitte, then worked at a family office specializing in tax and account management of high-net-worth individuals. She transitioned to Merrill in 2018 to add more value to her clients by saving them money through tax-efficient planning while simultaneously growing their assets to help them achieve their financial goals within their means.

WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST ACCOMPLISHMENT THIS YEAR? 

Successfully multitasking a very busy year.  From moving to Florida to setting up a professional life in Broward to getting married to making new friends and establishing new connections in the community, I have been very fortunate to find all of this in Fort Lauderdale, the new place I now call home.  I look forward to many of years of service to the community.

Drew Limsky

Editor-in-Chief

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
