| Introduction | I am a Television shopping host with Shop NBC with a black belt in shopping! I can be seen from 6-9am M-F selling a variety of products--my favorites being fashion and beauty. I'm completing my graduate gemologist degree with GIA. I hold a B.S. degree in Business from the University of Vermont & a Broadcast Journalism Certification from UCLA. I am also a voice over professional, model and a Professional union actress. I'm a girly girl and so is my 3-year old daughter! I met my husband in Italy and we love to travel back to see his family and re-visit where we fell in love. In my free time, I'm a mentor, a speaker and ambassador with Kinship of Greater Minneapolis. Kinship has 150+ children waiting for mentors--these are kids from a single parent home who need someone to open up their world and make them feel special. We especially need male mentors! Please volunteer to spend 2 hours a week with a child 5-15 years old in your area, go to www.kinship.org for more information. For more information on Wendi go to www.wendirusso.com.
