Dr. Christopher Leonard has been part of Wichita State for more than 11 years and serves as the director of Counseling and Psychological Services. He joined Staff Senate to be of service to the university and his colleagues, hoping to support others and contribute to the greater good. Now serving as vice president, he values the people who make WSU what it is and appreciates being part of something larger than himself. He believes the incredible work happening across campus is possible because of the dedicated individuals who show up for one another every day.
Outside the office, Christopher finds joy in family dinners and the time spent connecting with loved ones. He enjoys running, golfing, watching movies, playing music and catching live performances whenever he can. And of course, he proudly adds, “Da Bears!” These moments of movement, creativity and community keep him energized and grounded in his work at Wichita State.
