Score! Mid-America Events & Expos (MAEE) is delighted to welcome former women’s basketball pro and ace event manager Lynnette Sjoquist to our team as Expo Manager for all of our consumer expos: the 50+ PrimeTime Living Expos, the Girlfriends Expo & Getaway featuring the Women’s Home Expo, and the Body Mind Life Expo.

“She spent years on the professional basketball court  – on the receiving end of great assists – and now after years in the tradeshow industry she is positioned to assist our clients expand their businesses,” commented MAEE Vice President and Sponsorship Director Michelle Roddie. “She’s an asset to our team!”

As a player for the All American Red Heads, Lynnette appeared in Sports Illustrated and made numerous television appearances. She later became a player and team captain, then public relations director, for the Minnesota Fillies. You may also have heard her announce Gopher Women’s Basketball.

“Lynnette’s a dynamo with a winning attitude,” says MAEE President Robin Kocina. “She’s transitioned her basketball experience to business leadership roles in sales, promotions, strategic planning, product development, public relations, coaching and broadcasting.  We are most excited by her solid background in trade show management – she knows how to create extraordinary events that are beneficial for our sponsors and exhibitors.”

You can reach this go-getter at 612-798-7232 or by emailing LSjoquist@101expos.com.
