“Wendy taught two business classes at h+h Americas 2023 and they were some of the most popular classes we had at the show! Wendy’s real-life experience as an independent retailer and her down-to-earth ability to share practical expertise makes her the ideal person to teach at our trade show. As a show organizer, she was easy to work with, reliable, and helpful. What else could you ask for?
