Kelly Perdew Biography

Most recently, Perdew's entrepreneurial skills and strategic thinking abilities were put to the test on the highly acclaimed NBC show, The Apprentice. Perdew was among the select few invited to New York by Donald Trump for the chance to compete for a coveted position within the Trump Organization.

During his sixteen-week job interview on The Apprentice, Perdew was challenged in tasks ranging from selling ice-cream and designing a women's fashion line to the creation of a full marketing campaign for Pepsi-Cola. Notably, in the final stages of the series, Perdew went under the microscope with the CEOs and leaders of four of America's foremost businesses: Unilever HPC, Bear Stearns, The New England Patriots, and Pepsi-Cola. All four business leaders agreed that Perdew, more than any other candidate, "has what it takes" to work and manage some of Donald Trump's most important projects.

Over the course of the show Perdew attained record results, taking the helm as Project Manager on four occasions, and leading his team to victory on all four - a record score card, unbeaten by any of The Apprentice contenders to date.

Since becoming "The Apprentice," Perdew has been assigned to several high profile projects for the Trump Organization. Prior to winning The Apprentice Perdew held multiple Chairman and CEO positions and started his own businesses including, MotorPride, CoreObjects, and Perdew Properties, LLC. However recently Perdew has moved into advisory and Board of Director positions with his other business ventures.

Perdew led the negotiations for the successful sale of the company. He also was the co-founder, president, CEO of K12 Productions, LLC, an event marketing and production company. Prior to eteamz and K12 Productions, Perdew was a strategy manager at Deloitte Consulting in the technology practice. Before Deloitte, Perdew led business development and was acting CFO for ImageTel, a videoconferencing service provider where he helped grow sales for clients such as Lehman Brothers, AETNA, and the FBI.

Perdew also served as a military intelligence officer in the US Army and successfully completed both Airborne and Ranger training. He holds a BS degree from the United States Military Academy, West Point, and earned his MBA from The Anderson School at UCLA and his JD from the UCLA School of Law.

Perdew is a proven businessman who time and again has raised the bar, delivering unprecedented results with relentless enthusiasm. His military training, academic study, and substantial experience have instilled a strong sense of duty and integrity. Overall, Perdew is a role model for the youth of America, a symbol of the success that can be attained from hard work, discipline, and sacrifice.
