Profile for Stacy Trisler

Brief biography

I have 20+ years of marketing, sales, and management experience, primarily in the financial services industry., most recently as Vice President of Marketing at Community Credit Union (now Verve) for 10 years.  I'm a UWL alum and earned my MBA at Viterbo, after which I taught as an adjunct at Viterbo and Western Technical College while working full-time. 

2024-25 will be my 11th year at UWL and I teach Professional Selling (MKT 370) classes, along with Sales Management (MKT 470), as well as in the Kwik Trip Integrated Core Program.  In addition to teaching these classes, I also coach the UWL Eagle Sales Team, coordinate the local competition, and advise the UWL Eagle Sales Club. 

Making the career change to academics was one of the best decisions I've made, I love teaching students about marketing and sales and assisting them in navigating their academic careers and job search.  Teaching and coaching in sales provide me the opportunity to see student's growth in the "soft skill" of communicating professionally and become more confident in their ability to express themselves.
