Milwaukee wears its history proudly. Old warehouses and riverfront factories now buzz with new life. Cafes are filled with regulars, the smell of fresh roasts, and kitchens where local chefs transform heritage recipes into modern dishes. Local breweries anchor neighborhoods from Bay View to the Third Ward, serving as gathering spots where ideas and stories flow as easily as the drinks. There’s a harmony here between grit and warmth, art and labor, and tradition and innovation. The people who create businesses in Milwaukee don’t chase trends; they build legacies. Around here, being local is a badge of pride.

Your Local Curator In Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Nicole Orth

Local Account Manager

Hi, I’m Nicole! I grew up in Central Minnesota and later spent 13 wonderful years in Montana, where I truly fell in love with the mountains. Skiing, hiking, and wide-open spaces have left me with unforgettable memories. Nothing beats a midnight sky out West while backpacking. These days I call Northwest North Carolina home, which I love for its sense of community and the easy access it gives me to traveling. I am always seeking a destination to explore and interact with new cultures and new ways of living. My professional background includes restaurant hospitality and management, community health, and nonprofit work, all of which have shaped how I connect with people. As a Local Account Manager, I enjoy building quality relationships and thoughtfully matching businesses with opportunities. I’m especially grateful to work in a role that supports small, local businesses and helps communities thrive just the way it should be.
