About

Chris Mackey is the Co-founder of Skillsline, a mobile-first learning platform that teaches students the career-ready essential skills employers desire but schools rarely have the time to teach. Before founding Skillsline, Chris served as Vice President and General Manager of the Myers-Briggs Innovation Labs, where he led the development and marketing of award-winning software products.

Chris holds an MBA from Pepperdine University's Graziadio School of Business and Management and graduated from Indiana University as a Wells Scholar. At Skillsline, he focuses on modernizing essential soft-skill delivery through an engaging platform that helps students in community colleges and high schools develop the transferable, non-technical skills they need for career, academic, and life success. Skillsline has partnered with the National Association for Community College Entrepreneurship (NACCE) to expand career-readiness programming nationally.
