Tony Sheffler
co-founder
Tony Sheffler is a passionate Entrepreneur and Technologist who is based in Chicago, Illinois. Hailing from the same area, his love of helping people began early on and it has stayed with him ever since. Education became Tony’s main passion the moment his children started preschool, but it became his purpose as soon as he discovered the large gap in the U.S. education system.
Throughout the span of nearly a decade, Tony has served as a top sales leader in a fortune 100 enterprise role. This extensive, hands-on expertise directly fuels his present venture in the education industry.
Tony is the Co-Founder of an education technology startup called classform, where he is dedicated to advancing EdTech one student at a time. He is now in the process of building a classroom technology platform that will help both streamline and holistically manage education technology for K-12 schools.
Both motivated and equally as hardworking, Tony is on a mission to make EdTech easily accessible to all classrooms and ultimately empower children to tap into their limitless potential. What inspires him the most is the idea of helping create profound change within the education system countrywide. In his own words, Tony’s motto is: “Do your part to change something for the better.”
When he isn’t immersed in the education world, Tony Sheffler enjoys spending quality time with his family. Tony is happily married to his lovely wife and is the proud father of two boys (age 3 and 5).
