Joey Nickgorski

Finishing my bachelor’s degree was the final puzzle piece to complete my journey of advancing roles at my job. I had exhausted every other avenue of trying to climb the corporate ladder with experience and expertise. I needed to show the world I could set a challenging goal and see it through to completion.

I wanted the very best education that my region offered. The instruction I have received at the Wisconsin School of Business has far surpassed my greatest expectations of what a challenging yet rewarding learning experience can offer.
