International Market Woman Extraordinaire
Pro Vending & International Sales Training Since 1984
Born in Ann Arbor Michigan, my history living 18 years in Africa and Europe began in 1977.
Inspired by a vision to help eradicate poverty, I left University in France to start the Inspirit Arts cottage craft industry in Africa. This social enterprise raised funds for children’s causes in Kenya and Eswatini by making crafts, and training volunteers of women’s organizations to be vendors.
VILLAGE TO VILLAGE MOVEMENT
My greatest gift to the world so far, was starting the now thriving rolled paper movement by going from village to village, in one African country after another, to teach destitute villagers in drought stricken areas how to upcycle paper into jewelry.
Returning stateside to Ohio in 1995, I ran after school youth programs, while studying full time, and traveling the world to source handmade fashion to sell in my pop-up vendor booth.
VILLAGE TO VENDOR MOVEMENT
I've retired from vending to devote myself towards building 'The Vendor to Vendor Pipeline'. The two divisions are a Pop-Up Vendor Academy and a Wholesale Village eStore'.
This platform is full of products, courses and resources specifically for organizations to use in support of promoting their own products and service through a sales team of well trained pop-up event vendors.
Now, I'm open to travel for in person workshops and even relocating to open training centers in collaboration with branch partners and others.

VENDOR TO VENDOR MOVEMENT
Let's raise scholarship funds to upskill college graduates and empower young entrepreneurs to create their own freelance jobs and product distribution businesses.
Our best allies become Joint Venture Referral Partners.
They earn a percentage of revenue for simply introducing and inviting leaders of mission driven, social impact businesses, organizations and educators, to our programs.
Do you believe that getting cash from crowds is a valuable business skill worth learning and teaching?
‘The Village To Vendor Academy’ is a coaching community that trains-sales-trainers for exhibitors that distribute products and services at vendor events.
Our sales and service system bolsters skill, confidence and retention of salespeople while ensuring greater ROI through fast transactions.
We increase course completion rates by matching each learner with a community co-coaching cohort of intern coaches to provide accountability and guidance through the interactive curriculum in our engaging virtual classroom.
Our three step onboarding journey serves to build sales teams while vetting the most likely candidates to graduate with sales trainer certification.
TWO MAIN DIVISIONS
~ eCommerce & eLearning ~
This membership learning community and distribution network offers wholesale products, sales training courses and free resources to pop-up event vendors. There are two divisions:
The Village To Vendor Academy offers a unique specialized selling method for vendors to generate major revenue with 'cash cow' businesses through promoting products and services at pop-up markets, festivals, trade shows, expos, conferences, and special events.
The Village to Vendor eStore gives vendors access to highly profitable fair trade handmade fashion accessories in wholesale packages that are imported from crafters living in remote villages worldwide. What the poorest people in the world need most is customers.
We're developing a talent pool of sales trainers,
digital coaches and freelance course facilitators for hire online.
We're creating a new digital economy of freelancers
to get hired by businesses worldwide that need better vendors that specialize in distributing products and services at events.
