Classic Exhibits Inc. welcomes Jen LaBruzza to Classic Exhibits Inc. as the Western Regional Manager. Jen will be responsible for meeting and consulting with distributors throughout the West for Classic Exhibits, ClassicMODUL Aluminum Extrusions, and Classic Rentals. Jen LaBruzza has 20 years of experience in and around the trade show industry. Her varied career includes training, sales, project management, and operations.

Jen has developed a professional style based on excellent inter-personal communications and a gift for taking complex information and making it clear. She has participated in a variety of business cultures, including software development, travel planning, and small business management. In addition, Jen has worked as a certified elementary school teacher in Clark County (NV) public schools . . . Ideal training for trade shows.

Most recently, Jen owned a portable, modular, and hybrid display distributorship where she provided her clients with exhibit marketing services, display design, rentals, and show site supervision.

According to Mel White, VP of Marketing and Business Development at Classic Exhibits, “Jen is personable, intelligent, and resourceful. We are very fortunate that Jen has decided to bring her talents to Classic Exhibits. Our distributors will quickly appreciate her knowledge, her enthusiasm, and her commitment to improving their business. She understands the exhibit business from all perspectives:  as a customer, a distributor, and a manufacturer (and as someone who has assisted countless customers on the show floor). ”

“It’s very exciting to jump into this role and work with ClassicMODUL, Classic Exhibits and their amazing distributor network,” says Jen LaBruzza. “Classic’s focus on design, customer service, and ‘can do’ manufacturing provides a positive customer experience every time and makes them a trend-setter in our industry. I’m thrilled to be a part of all that is happening, and I look forward to making a difference in my region.”

Jen will work directly with distributors on how Classic Exhibits can serve their customers where price, creativity, and responsiveness are more important than ever. In addition, Jen will be tasked with developing alternative channels for ClassicMODUL engineered extrusions in architecture, retail, museums, signage, and interior design.

Jen has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Education from the University of Nevada – Las Vegas. She is conveniently based in Las Vegas.

Classic Distributors and Partners:

I have always hoped that Jen would join the Classic Exhibits team at some point. My grandma always said, “Persistence pays off Kevin,” and I have certainly been all that. She is a knowledgeable professional who brings her considerable talents to the Classic Network. She is also a trusted friend and shares our “Customers Come First” philosophy. You’ll be charmed and impressed . . . Even you crusty old coots who claim to have invented trade shows. 😉

Please take a moment to welcome Jen to the Classic Family. She can be reached at jen@classicexhibits.com.
