Lahir di Minneapolis dari ibu asal Iowa dan ayah berkebangsaan Italia, Leonardo mendalami kedua budaya tersebut dan menemukan hasratnya terhadap pertunjukan di usia muda.

Setelah pindah ke Los Angeles pada tahun 2017, Leonardo dengan cepat mendapatkan perwakilan, dilatih di The Chubbuck Acting Studio, dan melanjutkan studi kimia di Santa Monica College, mendapatkan izin masuk ke UCLA dengan IPK 4.0 sebelum memilih untuk fokus pada karir aktingnya.

Leonardo telah muncul dalam enam film layar lebar, empat serial TV-termasuk American Horror Stories karya Ryan Murphy- dan tiga produksi teater, termasuk peran utama dalam tur musikal Peter Pan di Italia. Leonardo juga menulis, menyutradarai, dan membintangi film pendek orisinal, Louie's Emotions, yang memerankan tujuh karakter berbeda—sebuah penampilan yang membuatnya mendapatkan dua nominasi dan satu kemenangan Aktor Terbaik di LA Top Shorts Film Festival. Memperluas keahlian industrinya, ia terus memproduksi dan menyutradarai film pendek menggunakan kamera bioskop RED, dengan proyek terbarunya, The Echo Project, menyoroti hasratnya untuk bercerita di kedua sisi kamera. Dengan semakin banyaknya karya yang menunjukkan keserbagunaan, karisma, dan komitmennya terhadap keahliannya, Leonardo Cecchi muncul sebagai talenta yang menonjol di industri ini.
