I’ve been a resident of Wisconsin my entire life, having grown up outside of Wausau. It was clear to me as a businessman in the private sector — but is even more apparent to me now after a year in my current job — that the UW System is Wisconsin’s largest talent magnet and economic driver. That’s why I took this role. Developing talent is key to Wisconsin’s future. For Wisconsin companies to compete regionally, nationally, and globally, we need a world-class public higher education system.
