NWAR Leadership & Committees
2023-24 Officers of the Association
Ed Raasch
President
Years in RE: 26
What attributes do you feel you can offer other NWAR members by serving: I believe that my years of experience in the business gives me a broad perspective of many different issues that we as Realtors face. I hope to be able to lend some insight and share some wisdom with my colleagues. It is my belief that we need to work toward common goals and listen to all viewpoints as we establish those goals.
Tom Bird
President-Elect
Years in RE: 18
Community is what it’s all about! I have served on the Minocqua Chamber Board of Directors, as a Chamber Ambassador, on the Events Committee and even built a few 30’ snowmen. I also volunteered over 13 years in various roles with the Cross Country Cruisers Snowmobile Club. I love this community and the entire Northwoods. Be active and get involved!
Kim Brixius
Treasurer
Years in RE: 26
Licensed in 1997, I am currently a Broker Associate with an alphabet soup of experience behind me. I believe in community and strive to be an asset in all endeavors and in whatever capacity called upon. I look to be an asset to those in my personal and professional life and therefore, hope that my varied experience can be a benefit to the NWAR board as well.
2023-24 Association Directors
Tynan Anderson
Years in RE: 11
I am a good problem solver and learner. I like to solve problems and make our profession stronger on a daily basis; which is why I felt the best way to accomplish this was to get involved with the board and do what I can do to make our organization stronger as our world evolves and we move into the future. I think learning from our senior members and bringing in some fresh new thoughts as a younger professional is a great recipe for success as an organization.
Kristin Gullickson-Wild
Years in RE: 26
I believe that it’s not only important, but also a duty, to be involved in your profession as well as your community. During my 25 years in the Realtors Assoc of South Central WI I was an member of numerous committees and organizer of events both as a Realtor and in my community serving on Village boards, Chamber of Commerce, Lions club and the High School music booster program. I am currently a member of the Lakeland Rotary and am looking forward to being an active Director and member NWAR and my Minocqua community.
Janel Pagels
Years in RE: 26
I enjoy teamwork, learning and helping others; which is why I decided to volunteer for our Board. I hope that my years of experience can be a benefit while I continue to learn from my peers in these upcoming years.
NWAR Committees
Volunteering on a committee is a great way to become more involved in your association! Committee volunteers make valuable connections with other REALTORS while expand their professional expertise, and committee service is a good stepping stone toward earning a seat on the Board of Directors!
