Sometime around when Fitz was 10, his father abandoned him and his mother. In 2004 Fitz went to the S.H.I.E.L.D. training academy with his best friend, Biochem genius Jemma Simmons. Among their instructors were Professor Vaughn and Professor Hall, who taught chemical kinetics during their second year. However, both graduated from the academy three years early. Sometime after they graduated from college, Jemma dragged Fitz into going on a field assignment which was to join Coulson's Team. Leo and Jemma were recruited by Agent Coulson to be the science crew for a new team he was putting together. Stationed on the Bus, the pair has designed specialized equipment and compounds on the fly in various emergency situations.

Their first foray was the case of Mike Peterson, a man in danger of exploding thanks to the Centipede formula. Peterson was saved in part by Fitz's efforts to create a Centipede counter-agent for Peterson. Fitz faced danger in the field in Peru, where the team was investigating an 0-8-4. Fitz and the team escaped Peruvian rebels only to face an armed takeover of the Bus. Working with the team, he helped take back the Bus and secure the old HYDRA weapon.
Soon afterward, Jemma Simmons was infected by a Chitauri helmet virus. He tried extremely hard to find an anti-serum, and he did in the end, but Jemma didn't know. Jemma hit Fitz on the back of the head with a fire extinguisher so she could jump from the 'Bus' to save the others, without Fitz following her. Fitz tried to parachute after her, but Grant Ward beat him to it. Fitz showed remorse that he wasn't the one to rescue Jemma after the events. Nevertheless, Jemma thanked him and kisses him on the cheek.
