LeiLani manages the Center for Digital Education, helping hundreds of IT companies with sales strategy, research and the Center’s advisory services.

In 1987, LeiLani was part of the original team to launch Government Technology magazine for e.Republic, Inc., the first national publication devoted to technology solutions in state and local government.

From 2000-late 2003, LeiLani worked for Entrust Software handling marketing and sales for the eight western States, SLED segment. In that role, she worked with individual government agencies, Community Colleges and Universities, and she responded to interest in statewide IT infrastructure security at the Governor staffing levels and legislative offices in several States. Through these efforts, LeiLani contributed language for a proposed bill to the California State legislature that was later adopted into a landmark IT security bill, SB 1386.

LeiLani rejoined e.Republic in the Center for Digital Government in 2003 and was later promoted to Publisher and Sales Manager in the Center for Digital Education. LeiLani has more than 18 years of experience in assisting companies to understand, sell and market to state/local government and education. LeiLani is a frequent speaker at various market Association conferences and vendor sales conferences including prior engagements with Microsoft, Ciber, EDS, Best Buy, COMP USA, Gateway, Qwest, HP and others.
