While Kirsten Khoury has been a part of the Jewelry Group team for a while now, she’s only recently stepped into her role working with our exhibitors at the JANew York Special Delivery show. We’re all so excited to work more closely with Kirsten; her acerbic wit and uncanny ability to find the humor in almost any situation is a welcome addition to the team!
