Diana Heldfond DiGia

I'm Diana Heldfond DiGia, Founder and CEO of Parallel. We partner with more than 200 school districts to deliver virtual special education services, including evaluations, speech therapy, counseling and specialized instruction.

I was diagnosed with dyslexia and ADHD at age seven. I remember struggling through a picture book while a classmate finished Harry Potter. My parents and a team of specialists helped me build the skills and confidence to succeed. I was lucky. Parallel exists so no child's future depends on luck.

Before Parallel, I worked on mergers and restructuring at PJT Partners, and I hold a BS from Georgetown.
