About Chris Sabiston

About I’m a husband and father of two from Fort Langley, BC, with a deep love for the outdoors. If I had my way, I’d be camping in the mountains more often. Professionally, I lead Flywire’s Education business in Canada, overseeing both the Higher Education and K–12 markets. I’ve been fortunate to spend my career working with incredible institutions and partners who share a common goal — making education more accessible, secure, and seamless for students around the world. At Flywire, I help Canadian universities, colleges, and school districts simplify and enhance their international payment processes. My focus is on creating a better experience for every stakeholder in the student payment journey — from students and parents to agents and institutions. What Drives Me For over 20 years, I’ve worked within Canada’s education ecosystem — first helping K–12 districts grow and manage international student programs, and now supporting higher education institutions as they expand their global reach. I’m passionate about helping schools remove barriers, strengthen their operations, and deliver exceptional experiences to international students and their families. Education is one of Canada’s greatest exports, and I’m proud to play a role in supporting its continued success.
