She is one of the most popular commercial singers among ethnic Albanians in Kosovo, Albania, Macedonia and Montenegro. Today Leonora lives in Kosovo's capital Prishtina. She lost her father during the Kosovo war (1998-1999); he was killed by the Yugoslav security forces. Her repertoire includes a wide variety of material including commercial pop and patriotic songs. She is not married.

Her most popular song, without any doubt, is “Can innocence be killed?”(A vritet pafajsia?) published in 1998 while Leonora was a war refugee in Albania. She dedicated the song to her father and other Albanians who died during the Kosovo war.

Leonora every year in the beginning of March in Drenica sings her song "Can innocence be killed?" in tribute to the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) and KLA-commander Adem Jashari. In an interview with RTK (Kosovo's public broadcaster) she said this was an obligation for her since she lost her father during the Kosovo war and according to her he was a member of KLA.

Leonora says she does not know why her album number two "Sahara and Roe deer" has this name. According to her she sold the rights to a record label who decided the name of the album.

Leonora once had a younger sister Lindita who died in the Kosovo wars as well. The remainings of her family is her mother and older brother.
