Lee Pelligreen

Associate Director, Employer Engagement

I joined the Weston Career Center in 2018 to help drive positive change in career services by collaborating with the team.  Prior to that, I was in financial services building financial plans with families and small businesses, growing and protecting wealth.  I learned to listen, simplify the complex, and customize solutions.  The securities licenses were held with companies such as MetLife, ING, MassMutual, etc.  My undergraduate degree is in Spanish from UT-Austin.  I also have a graduate degree from ICADE in Madrid, Spain.  I’m a graduate of Olin in the EMBA 44 class.  I live in St. Louis with my wife, daughter, and Zoom (toy poodle).  While not keeping busy with students and employers, I can be found hiking, swimming, and running in the outdoors, training for my next adventure.  Fun Fact:  I followed Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton’s journey from Elephant Island to South Georgia.  I hope our paths cross on campus, in the office, or on the trails!
