WATER COUNCIL FEATURES MMSD'S SASSO

A LIFELONG PASSION FOR WATER

Growing up in Wisconsin inspired a passion for water and the outdoors in Lisa Sasso. With access to countless lakes, rivers and streams, she fostered this love of the environment and water from a young age, which is why when it came time to pick a career, Sasso followed her heart. Leveraging the state’s unique programs for water technology workforce development, she enrolled at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater (UW-W), one of the only universities in the nation that combines water and business curriculum.

She saw the opportunity to marry her academics to her love of water, and entered the program.
