Where Is She Now? Leanna Chroman Comes Full Circle.
Three years ago, readers first met Leanna Chroman, an Indianapolis restaurant executive who was just beginning her bachelor’s degree with Purdue Global.
Chroman (BS psychology ’25, Purdue Global) had stopped going to school at the end of junior high to support her family when her dad’s health failed. She later earned her GED while working her way up in the hospitality industry. And at age 45, she was finally giving herself the chance to pursue the degree she’d always wished she had.
