Who is Willis Wood

Willis graduated from Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles in 2005 with a major in business management and a minor in Entrepreneurship. This gave him the knowledge to jump into the business world—his first career stop was in Los Angeles doing sales for a trade show exhibit company. After mastering the industry from the reseller point of view, Willis had the opportunity to work for one of the leading trade show exhibit manufacturers where he excelled at sales and found he had a knack for management. At only 24 years old, he managed his team of 3 employees meeting and exceeding the goals set by the company.

In 2007, he took the opportunity to return to Denver, his hometown, to start his own trade show exhibit design and production company called Trade Show Emporium. Fast forward to 2013. Trade Show Emporium was getting requests for window decals and signage. It didn’t take Willis long to realize that the extraordinary development on Colorado’s Front Range was ripe for signage. That motivated him to start RiNo Sign Works in 2013 with his business partner Brian Dudzinski. When Willis is not in his office, you can usually find him racing his Formula Vee race car, playing with his dog Jackson, or ripping down the mountain on his mountain bike
