Our Team
Meet Sarah—Founder & President
I am a writer, a maker, a professor, an entrepreneur and a believer. My vision for WiscoBoxes is to celebrate Wisconsin’s many incredible growers, makers and artisan and iconic manufacturers in a way that provides opportunity for all. This coming together of people and products is not just about exquisite and memorable gifting, it’s about people and stories, memories and traditions. It’s about celebrating the true spirit of Wisconsin and sharing it with others by sending a little piece of home to a far away friend, welcoming a neighbor, comforting a loved one and remembering that when we come together over a good food and a great glass of wine there is not anything we can’t accomplish.
So yes, I believe in a life filled with great people and good opportunities. I believe in happy hour. Because it makes me happy. I believe in dancing barefoot and new beginnings; in old people, wide-eyed students and well-worn blue jeans. I believe in small towns and slow food, in farmers and soldiers in uniform. I believe in tuxedos and the men who wear them well. I have lived my entire life in Wisconsin. I love its people, its exquisite places, its extraordinary experiences. And I look forward to sharing them all with you.
Meet Lisa—Markets & Solutions Developer
As Markets & Solutions Developer, Lisa establishes and maintains protocols for delivering the ultimate customer experience in ways that bring the brand to life and generate meaningful memorability. She is the lead curator of new box concepts, the wizard of product discovery and takes true pleasure in creating the perfect gifts for both personal and corporate clients.
As a sales professional with more than 15 years of experience across varying industries, Lisa is focused on delivering high quality results with a concentration on developing and managing strong client relationships. Her quick wit and dry humor, easy manner and gracious approach are instantly engaging.
Away from work, Lisa enjoys exploring the unique mix of natural beauty and artistic culture Wisconsin has to offer. Be it kayaking and camping in the great outdoors, relaxing by the lake at the family cabin in Northern Wisconsin, checking out one of Madison’s newest restaurants, the farmers market or a classic supper club (with an Old Fashioned in hand), I guess you could say Lisa truly embodies all that is Wisconsin.
