Gus Kaiser

I’m Gus Kaiser and I’m a recent graduate of the Atmospheric Science program here at UW-Milwaukee. I enjoyed my time here at UWM so much I decided to come back in the fall of 2021 to pursue a master’s degree in Atmospheric Science. While I call Milwaukee home now, I’m originally from the small town of Cambridge WI, just east of Madison. As a kid in a small town there was not much to do, so I learned to keep myself entertained by playing in nature. I believe my fondness for the outdoors is why I gravitated toward Atmospheric Science. In addition to my studies, I was able to follow my other love running while at UWM as a member of the cross country and track & field teams. I have been an avid runner since the 6th grade when my parents convinced me to join the middle school cross country team. When I’m not studying or running, I enjoy cycling, hiking, playing basketball and spending time with friends and family. One interesting fact about me is that my full name is August, but I was born in June.
