Chris Palevich, MBA, MSM

Chris has worked in sourcing or empowering students for employment for the last 16 years. He started his career with Monster.com, where he learned how to source and narrow down candidates for employers for the right fit. It was a natural transition to turn his attention to schools teaching students what employers were looking for. Chris has held roles as a career services advisor, director of career services, and vice president of career services in various post-secondary educational institutions, including Kaplan and Medtech Colleges.

With the changing landscape of secondary education, Chris believes that an enrollment-to-employment model will be the future of education.

When Chris is not at work, he’s regularly going to Disney with his wife and kids (Epcot is their favorite). They’ve become spoiled having Disney World 50 minutes from their house and routinely hears his family say, “It’s time to see Mickey!” Between work and family, Chris finds time to compete monthly in local triathlons and cycling races throughout the Clearwater and St. Petersburg, Fla., areas.
