With experience in all aspects of sales, from business development to driving huge revenue growth, I know that he’ll help us continue to raise the bar.”
Wierenga has deep experience in the furniture industry – a tremendous asset as Vari continues to innovate and expand services for clients.
“It’s not often that you to get to be part of a company dedicated to transforming and simplifying an entire industry,” Wierenga said in the announcement. “I am looking forward to elevating my team, raising the bar in new cities, and making an impact as we create workspaces that elevate people.”

In 2018, Kevin joined furniture manufacturer Poppin as vice president of sales and strategy.
