Vice President :

Avery Ladd-Winders he/him/his

ladd-winders2410@uwlax.edu

Hi, I’m Avery Ladd-Winders, the Vice President of the UWL Student Association. I’m a senior majoring in Business Analytics and Accountancy. This year, I’m excited to build on my experience from serving as a CSH Senator in the 2023-2024 term and work towards making our campus community even stronger.

In my role as vice president, I’m focused on enhancing student engagement and ensuring that our student association effectively represents and supports the needs of the student body. I’m committed to working closely with fellow students and university staff to drive positive change and create a welcoming environment for everyone.

Outside of my role in student leadership, I work as a tutor in the Writing Center, where I help students improve their writing skills. I also enjoy spending time outdoors, especially hiking the bluffs around La Crosse. When I’m not studying or working, you can often find me hanging out with friends and making the most of what our campus and community have to offer.

I’m looking forward to a productive year ahead and am eager to contribute to our campus community in meaningful ways. If you have any questions or ideas, feel free to reach out!
