Wisconsin Gov. Jim Doyle has appointed Sean Dilweg as the state's new commissioner of insurance.
Dilweg succeeds Jorge Gomez, who resigned to pursue opportunities in the private sector last month.
A native of Green Bay, Dilweg most recently served as the executive assistant at the Wisconsin Department of Administration. He previously worked for Essie Consulting Group. In addition, he was a lead policy advisor for members of the Joint Committee on Finance during three biennial state budgets and was committee clerk for the Senate Committee on Environment and Energy from 1995 to 2000.
Dilweg has a master's in public administration from the La Follette Institute of Public Affairs at the University of Wisconsin in Madison and a bachelor's degree from Lawrence University in Appleton.
"Sean Dilweg brings a wealth of experience to the office of the commissioner of insurance," Doyle said. "I am confident that Commissioner Dilweg will ensure that the insurance industry continues to be a vibrant part of the Wisconsin economy and will provide a clear voice for consumers in order to protect them from fraud and abuse."
Other appointments for Doyle's second term as governor, which began today, include:
- Dan Schooff as deputy secretary of the Department of Administration. Schooff most recently served as campaign manager for Doyle's reelection campaign. Schooff replaces Gina Frank Reese, who will remain in the administration.
- Patrick Henderson as the executive assistant at the Department of Administration. Henderson previously was Doyle's legislative director.
- Ron Hermes as the governor's legislative director. Hermes previously was the legislative liaison at the Department of Health and Family Services.
- Randy Romanski as executive assistant at the Department of Natural Resources (DNR). He previously was Doyle's deputy chief of staff.
