ABOUT ME
Tracy Pawlak
I was born and raised on the south side of Milwaukee. I was a member of the Boy Scouts where I earned my Eagle Scout rank at the age of 13. I also became actively involved in a service organization called the Order of the Arrow where I also achieved the highest rank available.
I graduated Marquette University High School in 1991. I earned a degree in Economics & Management and Political Science from Beloit College.
I have worked in the Financial Services industry nearly my whole career.
I currently work for a large, privately held banking and financial services company based in Wisconsin and serve as their AVP Wealth - Training Consultant.
I've been married to my beautiful wife, Caryn, for almost 17 years. We have been blessed with three wonderful children: Cameron is a Sophomore at Germantown High School. Madalyn is in 8th grade at Kennedy Middle School.
I have previously run for School Board in the Spring of 2020. I also ran in the Spring of 2021 when I was blessed to earn this community's trust for Seat #1 on the Board.
