Nancy Noelke

Nancy Noelke lives and writes in La Crosse, Wisconsin, nestled between sandstone bluffs and the Mississippi River. She started writing in journals at an early age, then fell in love with poetry and short forms as she navigated work and family life. She retired from Gundersen Health System after a twenty-five-year career as a leadership consultant and coach. She holds a master’s degree in higher education administration and a bachelor’s degree in psychology. She holds a life degree in curiosity and wonder.   

Nancy’s work has appeared in The Physician Executive, HR Magazine, Spirituality and Health Magazine, Global Advances in Health and Medicine, Coulee Region Women’s Magazine, Essential Inklings, Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets’ Calendar, and The Metaworker LitMag.
