Geri Roskopf

Geri was born in Milwaukee Wisconsin and together with her husband has run Roskopf’s towing for over 30 plus years!

Working together with her husband Jeff is not always easy and has had its ups and downs but it is always made better as long as Jeff understands who the true BOSS is!

A natural born leader and manager Geri has been active in the Wisconsin Towing Association for more than 20 years. Geri organized and developed the Tow Woman 911 Roundtable promoting women in the towing industry and since her husband is the President of TRAA she only thought it would be fair and Assumed the role of President of the WTRAA for four years helping to reinvent the drive and focus of the organization and bring women back into the limelight of our industry. In 2003 Geri was named Tow Woman of the year by WTRAA and she has worked hard to organize and raise funds for its annual Scholarship Fund.

She is responsible for many of the children’s and family activities for the Wisconsin State Towing Association and as a regular columnist for industry publications has been a blogger for Tow Times since 2011, sharing her ups and downs along with thoughts on how to be better with all.

She has been active in her community with the Chamber of Commerce, Knights of Columbus and Menomonee Falls Women’s Community League and founded the Elizabeth Ministry for St. Mary’s Paris in Menomonee Falls. The Ministry is an outreach to families in special time of parenthood.

Behind every great man is an even better woman they say and I am sure Jeff would strongly agree.
