Leana Nakielski, community and social impact investment director for American Family Insurance, has joined the Board of Directors of UW Credit Union.

“Leana’s background, passion and ideas are a great fit with our organization,” says Paul Kundert, President and CEO of UW Credit Union. “She brings to us a wealth of experience in business development, community relations and social impact, as well as special insights into Wisconsin’s Hispanic community. Through her diverse experiences, Leana has made many positive impressions in both the Milwaukee and Madison regions.”

Prior to joining American Family, Nakielski held leadership roles with the Greater Milwaukee Committee; the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Wisconsin; and Highland Community School in Milwaukee. Additionally, she’s assisted numerous organizations through consulting on social entrepreneurship, fundraising, community relations, strategic development and program development.

Nakielski holds two degrees from UW-Madison – an MBA and a bachelor’s in international agriculture and natural resources, agriculture and applied economics.

UW Credit Union is governed by a board of directors comprised of volunteers who are active credit union members. This group is legally responsible by statute, articles of incorporation and bylaws for the overall direction of the affairs and performance of UW Credit Union. The Board carries out this responsibility by establishing guiding policy and monitoring the performance of management within the framework of these policies.
