The typical strengths of traditional agencies, like brand strategy and creative theory, don't always make the leap to interactive agencies. Fortunately for LeapFrog Interactive, co-founder and Chief Digital Officer Alan Gilleo has drawn from his advertising agency background to integrate creative disciplines and marketing insight into the more technical competencies and skills required by the web.

Alan's perspective has built an interactive agency that knows how to merge powerful branding and innovative technology on the fastest-growing platforms. It's a philosophy that drives fresh innovation and is technically adept and user-focused. It also increases brand equity by turning everyday users into brand fanatics. The approach has performed magic on campaigns for clients like Tommy Hilfiger, Pizza Hut, National Public Radio, and Comcast Cable.

If determination could be condensed and bottled, Alan would corner the market. With vision that never strays from the big picture, he has steadily charted the course for LeapFrog Interactive.

Over the course of his career, Alan has won Addy awards for his work with Tommy Hilfiger, Brown-Forman, Pepe Lopez, Louisville Orchestra, and our own company website. He's received an IAC WebAward for Tuaca and has been an IAC WebAwards Judge in 2004, 2005 and 2007. Alan was the second-youngest person to ever win the 40 under 40 Award. His work has been featured in STEP Inside Design magazine and MediaPost, and he is also an Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year Finalist.
