Thank you to everyone who came out to our "After-Hours with Nickel & Suede" event last month!

Kilee Nickels, founder of Nickel & Suede, shared her inspiring journey of building the brand from the ground up. She spoke about the challenges she faced in starting the business and the lessons learned along the way. We were happy to have both business owners and LPS students in attendance to hear Kilee's entrepreneurial journey.
