Megan Seppmann is a results-driven leader known both locally and nationally for her excellence in the hospitality industry and dedication to helping others. Her innovative thinking and strategic vision have helped turn Milwaukee into a not-to-be-missed destination for meeting, convention and event planners and their attendees. With an exceptional track record of mentorship and development, she has fashioned an innovative team responsible for 80 million dollars in annual revenue.

In her current role as the vice president of sales at the Wisconsin Center District (WCD), Megan provides executive leadership for all sales strategies and operations for the WCD’s three venues; Baird Center, Miller High Life Theatre and UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena. Since joining the WCD in December of 2018, Seppmann has overseen steady, year-over-year growth in both revenue and event bookings. Using her executive MBA from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and executive certificate from Cornell University, she has maximized ROI across the three properties, empowered those who work for and with her and led successful collaborations with partners ranging from small startups to Fortune 500 companies. Following the groundbreaking of the Baird Center expansion in October 2021, Seppmann, alongside operations and project management teams, has successfully supported the $456 million project that is projected to stimulate at least $12.6 billion total spending in Wisconsin over the next 30 years.

She is also driven by a passion for positively impacting her community and profession, shown by her extensive history of supporting non-profit organizations like Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Milwaukee, and by founding the Megan M. Seppmann Hospitality Scholarship Award at Southwest Minnesota State University (SMSU). For Seppmann, success is not just measured in revenue but in the positive impact she leaves on both the business world and the lives of the people she touches.
