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.

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.
