Assistant Coach
Shauna Wessely
Shauna
Office Hours: By Appointment

Greetings and salutations! I competed in forensics throughout high school and college, am the current director of the UW-W high school forensics camp, and assistant coach of the high school team at Milton High School, where I am a Spanish teacher. While I have a multitude of wonderful memories from past competition and coaching experiences, I can't wait to create some new ones while helping to meld the minds of future forensicators. If you're seeking forensics help or if you need a little time to vent about life in general, I'm always willing to lend an ear.


Assistant Coach
Michael Wessely
Mike
Office Hours: By Appointment

Hi, I'm Mike. In addition to being an assistant coach and the quasi/pseudo webmaster, I'm also a former president of the team. Please feel free to ask me for help in developing your material; I'm always available to help. Forensics is a great experience whether you participated in high school or are just now in college discovering the fun that is forensics.


President Ben Walker
Ben
Office Hours: M/W/F 1:00-2:00; Th 5:00-6:00

This is my final year in competition, but my heart will always be with this team. The experiences I’ve had with forensics have been life altering and I plan to enjoy every second this year! If you are interested in joining the team, please do! We are a crazy bunch and welcome everyone!


Vice President
Brandi Kelley
Brandi
Office Hours: 4:00-6:00, and at random

I am the Vice President of Forensics (aka Queen of the World), Student Tournament Director, and the general navigator on trips, although I will probably end up driving more often than not this year. My major is Business Management, and eventually I would like to add a minor in Public Relations and/or Interpersonal Communication. Things everyone should know about me: I like music and anything that is pretty or shiny; I collect hats; I tend to be very blunt about almost everything; and I tend to forget words a lot what I am talking. I accidentally joined High School Forensics when I was a freshman and continued to be in forensics every school year since. I have met some of my best friends in forensics and have some "interesting" times. I love to travel with the team and bond with them like I rarely bond with anyone else. I hope my interest fans your interest. Come check us out!


Treasurer
Garret Winter
Garret
Office Hours: R 11:00-12:00

Hey everyone! I am Garret Winter. I am currently a junior pre-pharmacy student here at UW-Whitewater. I enjoyed Forensics for two years at my high school. I haven't competed yet, and most likely won't have time to this year, but I hope that I can help this group any way I can! I am currently the treasurer for Forensics.


Secretary Kayte Braun
Kayte
Office Hours: T 3:30-5:00

Hi! I'm Kayte, your friendly team Secretary. It is my fourth year with the team (third year competing) and sadly it will be my last. But I am very excited to make it an awesome year! I am an Early Childhood/Special Education major with a Spanish minor. I am not a fan of piña coladas, but I do like getting caught in the rain. I like most things cheesy (sometimes including jokes) and would have to choose ninja over pirate with regards to forensics. If you have any questions about Forensics or UW-Whitewater in general, I can probably answer them. See you around!


Member-At-Large Kristine Johnson
Kristine
Office Hours: T 10:00-11:00
Hi, my name is Kristine Johnson. This is my second year at University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, and this year I'm an RA on 4th floor Knilans. Many people find this odd as I commuted last year. I live in East Troy, and so that is why I commuted. I am majoring in Journalism and my minor is multi-media. That goes along with my job in the GAPS computer lab (located inside of Anderson) where I help students with graphic designs and other technology questions. I love to design things on the computer, but I am no longer addicted to facebook or e-mail, so it takes me longer to respond this year. Sometimes I can be very odd, but I hope that doesn't bother you. I am very busy and I have no idea how I got the position of "Forensic puppet". I have been in 4N6 since 6th grade, but last year I did not compete (due to time issues) and am hoping to this year. If you have any questions, comments, or would like to do a piece with me for Duo, please email me at: johnsonKA21 at uww.edu.

Office Hours: MW 1:45-2:45

Hi, My name is Danielle Chochola. I am a Special Education major with a minor in Coaching. I have been in forensics since I was in the 2nd grade. I love Ninjas but pirates have better booties.
