Penny Aguilera

Penny Aguilera, a true Wisconsin native, infuses her life and art with warmth, curiosity, and a spark of humor. For over three decades, she has inspired design students at Madison College, all while fueling her own creative projects. Penny delights in the simple joys: a lively game of pickleball, listening to audiobooks, arranging fresh flowers, and gathering with friends over good food. She cheers for the Green Bay Packers with unwavering loyalty and practices Spanish on Duolingo with devotion. Whether she is diving into a new craft, mapping out her next adventure, or savoring a quiet cup of coffee, Penny radiates genuine enthusiasm and positivity in everything she does.
Penny’s love for cheese is pure Wisconsin. She reserves an entire fridge drawer for her ever-changing collection, from sharp aged cheddar to smoky Gouda, always ready for a spontaneous cheese-and-sausage board.
