I have worked for 30 years in the wholesale/retail business for Yankee Candle. I was the showroom designer/ manager for all trade mart gift shoes across the country which involved designing,setting up,breaking down and all aspects of high level teade show business. With new company owners, my position was eliminated while I was out on leave for a hip replacement. Since, i have decided to branch out on my own and do some crafting and creating. I am eager to get involved with upcoming shows for 2018.
