National Educational Advisor
Holly De Leon is a life-long educator starting out as a Speech/Language Pathologist with Bachelors and Masters degrees from North Texas State University. After establishing a clinical practice for 15 years in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, she started her educational technology career at LeapFrog (NYSE:LF). LeapFrog had been in the consumer toy market for 7 years when we started the school division of LeapFrog SchoolHouse. We used the technology that had been developed by LeapFrog and then developed educationally appropriate and pedagogically sound educational materials. In the early 2000’s LeapFrog SchoolHouse was named the fastest growing education company in the country. Ms. De Leon then joined another consumer start-up, Livescribe, and launched the world’s first smartpen into the educational market. The smartpen had educational applications all the way from Preschool to the Higher Ed market. Within 3 years we had products in over one fourth of the school districts in the U.S. Following Livescribe, Ms. De Leon was a founding member of a start-up division of McGraw-Hill Education. This start-up division was focused on using technology to personalize the learning path for each student in the classroom. She then went on to other education companies like American Reading Company, Touchjet USA, and Exploros.
Ms. De Leon is the CEO of Education Industry Representative Group. EIRG serves to establish effective sales teams for educational companies. She also serves as advisor to several early stage educational companies.
Ms. De Leon is the National Educational Advisor for Animal Island Learning Adventure (AILA) Preschool Learning System. This is particularly rewarding as it combines her passion for early education and also the use of educational technology to allow our youngest learners to establish a strong foundation so they will be Kindergarten ready.
Ms. De Leon resides in Austin, Texas where her two grown daughters and 4 grandchildren also reside.
