Champions School of Real Estate Names Second Vice President

From staff reports

Just a year after naming its first vice president in company history, Champions School of Real Estate named its second at a statewide company retreat in Austin. 

Champions CEO and founder Rita Santamaria and president Kimberly Dydalewicz announced human resources director Debi Bliazis would be promoted to vice president, effective immediately, at the company’s awards dinner.

Bliazis had been previously named as the company’s Employee of the Year in 2016 and has been with the company for almost 10 years, overseeing all human resources responsibilities with new and current employees from her offices at Champions’ Houston North campus. 

She is the second vice president named to the company, following online campus manager Curt Knobloch’s promotion to vice president in 2018.

“As we continue our nationwide expansion, our team is continuously growing and it’s important to us that our award-winning Champions culture grows with us. Debi has excelled at finding the right people to join our Champions ‘work family,’” said Santamaria. “Announcing Debi’s promotion to Vice President in front of our statewide team at this year’s Annual Company Retreat Awards dinner was a fun and very well-deserved surprise!”

An avid athlete who has even participated in triathlons, Bliazis has also implemented a company-wide wellness program.
