My name is Mandy Stasiek (she/her). As the Program Manager for the Financial Wellness and Literacy Center, I create, implement, and evaluate financial wellness programming and initiatives for students in effort to help them maximize their investment in higher education. I offer one-on-one financial counseling to students to help them create a plan to pay for college, manage budgets, understand loans, search for scholarships, and supplement their budgets with campus and community resources among many other financial topics. My favorite thing about working at UW-Stout is helping students write their own life story and holistically meet their greatest aspirations as they navigate unexpected life obstacles. I enjoy being a cheerleader, advocate, and mentor to students looking to advance their education, personal, and career goals, however they define them.
