CLUB PRESIDENT 2025-26

William Zimmer-Wakeley

Born and raised in Ladysmith, Wisconsin, I started my journey in the Twin Ports while attending UW-Superior. During those four years there I fell in love with the community and knew that I wanted to spend more time here. After graduating in 2017 with my Bachelors in Chemistry and Biology, I moved to Bloomington, Minnesota to attend Northwestern Health Sciences University. That is where I met my now husband Zach, who has been a great supporter of all my endeavors. After graduating in 2020 with my Doctorate of Chiropractic, we moved back to Superior in 2021 to open Imperium Chiropractic - Superior. That’s when I joined the Superior and Douglas County Chamber Ambassador group, met other Rotarians, and was invited to join the Rotary Club of Superior. During the last four years I have had the pleasure to grow both personally and professionally through opportunities presented to me in Rotary. Between fundraisers, volunteering, and leadership, I could not ask for a better group of people to be involved with. It is my honor to serve as Rotary President for 2025-26.
