Mary Leimbach

Secretary
Mary lives in Roseville, California with her husband Jimmy and three kids- Jakob, Madelyn and Ryan. Madelyn does not have Galactosemia but both Jakob and Ryan have Classic Galactosemia. Jakob was diagnosed at 4 days old and knowing there was a possibility that Madelyn and Ryan could have Galactosemia, Mary started them on Soy formula at birth. The first conference she attended was in 2008 in Chicago and has since been to all but two! Mary feels very fortunate to have found this community of families and Doctors that have helped her understand Galactosemia and have given her the tools to help her advocate for her children.
Mary has been a self employed Hairstylist since 1998. In her free time, she enjoys BBQing and camping with friends and family, attending her kids sporting events, and volunteering in her community.
Mary is looking forward to being able to give back to the community that helped her immensely along the way.
