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. 

2023-24 will be my 9th year at UWL and my primary focus is sales, although I also teach the Principles of Marketing class and Business Communication class. 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. 

I have twin daughters, Bryn and Bree, who both live in Minneapolise

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.
