Hello, my name is Benji Winkelman, and I am a graduate of Marian Central, the class of 1992. After high school, I went on to receive my bachelor's degree from St. Mary's University in Winona Minnesota in 1996. I continued my education and received a master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction from National Louis University in Evanston, Ill in 1999. I have also earned a master's degree in educational leadership from American College of Education in 2022. This is my 27th year of teaching and 22nd at Marian Central.
On a more personal note I am married to Kelly (Dehn) Winkelman also a Marian Alumni class of 1996, we have been married for 22 years. We have two beautiful daughters Jodie age 20 and Jillian age 17. I spend my free time with my two dogs, Charlie and Doug. You may also see me around the diamonds, as I am an umpire for the Fox Valley Blues.
