MEET OUR BOARD – CAROL THIEL

Carol Thiel has sung with the MSM since 2013 and she accepted the new Board position of Corresponding Secretary in 2020. After graduating from UW-Whitewater with a degree in Vocal Performance,  she had the opportunity to sing with Milwaukee’s Florentine Opera for 23 seasons. 

Until three years ago, Carol had worked for 30 years in Human Resources/Benefits with a private company. Since then she has served as an HR Director with a public entity.  Married to Bob Thiel for 34 years, they have two sons, one married, and one grandson. Carol lives in Mt Pleasant, WI. 

The MSM is fortunate to have such a talented and dedicated individual on our board and in our choir, especially since she has commuted to Wauwatosa for rehearsal for the last seven years! Welcome, Carol Thiel!

Meet Our Board – Sandra Halgerson

Sandra Halgerson was invited to join the MSM Board in 2017, as a Member-at-Large, and was elected to serve on the Executive Committee of the Board as Recording Secretary in 2020. She has studied both in the U.S. and abroad, and earned Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from UW-Whitewater. While not a trained musician (she is not a singing member of the MSM), Sandra has enjoyed a life-long love of music, thanks to her father, an amateur musician, composer, and lyricist. She spent 43 years working as a financial professional in the metro Milwaukee area. Sandra is now retired and lives in the Bay View neighborhood of Milwaukee, WI.

Congratulations to Sandra Halgerson on her new role as Recording Secretary, and we thank her for her many years of service to the MSM.
