Wesley is originally from Spring Valley, Wisconsin and completed his undergrad work at UW-Stevens Point and Masters at UW-River Falls. He spent 15 years working as a school counselor for HLWW, Dean of Students for 8 years at Holy Trinity, and also taught Health and PE courses. He is a long time coach including track and field, wrestling, and JH football. Wesley lives in Winsted with his wife, Sarah, and daughters Grace and Clara who are 7th and 9th grade students at Lester Prairie Schools.
One of Wesley's favorite things to do is compete in obstacle course racing. He's competed in 45 races. Most have been in Minnesota, but he also qualified for championship events in California and Ontario, Canada.
Something you may not know about Wesley is that he is a huge fan of 80's rock music and has attended many concerts. Some of the bands he's seen include: Metallica, KISS, Guns n Roses, Motley Crue, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Poison, and Tesla.
If he could meet any historical person, it would be Rafer Johnson because he overcame many obstacles to become a world class athlete and was able to use that platform to transition into political and social endeavors.
