Claire Lewis Arnold

Claire Lewis Arnold co-founded Leapfrog in 1998 and serves as its CEO, offering a wealth of experience in high-growth business development and long-range strategic planning to the Leapfrog team. She is passionate about enabling clients to securely fulfill their mission through highly serviced technology.

Prior to starting Leapfrog, Yum acquired, through a leveraged buy-out, a local distributor of consumer goods to convenience stores and mass merchandisers and spent the next 15 years building it into one of Georgia’s five largest privately held companies. As its CEO, she expanded the company from a traditional one-warehouse distributor into a multi-faceted corporation with nine operating divisions. Yum aggressively worked on behalf of her industry, serving on the board of its trade association and as its President and Chair.

Prior to this, she spent nearly 10 years with Coca-Cola USA, where she was the marketing manager for Coke’s first plastic beverage containers and also held positions in sales, sales management and long-range planning.
