Today, we head back to the Akron Zoo to sit down with Colleen Lenahan, the buyer for the gift shop, who also works on the social media team and does SO much more! Colleen is a longtime fan and supporter of the podcast, and if you're recognizing the name, it's because I say it EVERY WEEK in Zoo News, as she is always sending me material. But today we sit down to talk about her job at the Akron Zoo. What goes into making a gift shop special? How much creative and artistic license to buyers get to have? Will I EVER get a red panda necklace that I truly love? Find out all that and more in this episode!
