University of Wisconsin-La Crosse

My name is Brandon Norton, and I am from Waukesha, Wisconsin. I grew up right next to Milwaukee and went to UW-La Crosse where I studied Russian language and culture as well as Exercise and Sport Science. With that being said, I am excited to dive into an environment where I can not only share American culture but learn more about Russian culture. This past year, I have been helping out in the La Crosse school district in the English Learners department and it has been one of the most rewarding experiences to aid non-native English speakers with their language abilities. I am also a very health centered person and some of my hobbies include weightlifting, hiking, and skiing.
