Mike Truesdell

Director of Onsite Services

I have been working at American Tradeshow for 15 years now. I started as an onsite tech and now in charge of our logistics and inventory division. Before this job I worked in the convention business in another capacity. I have seen it all when it comes to convention services. I have a wife and two children. When I am not working I like to ride my bike along some of our great bike paths in Mandeville, LA. I grew up in downtown New Orleans but as I have gotten older and more of a family man I prefer the quiet suburb life of Mandeville. I do on occasion like to have a staycation in New Orleans. Of course like any other New Orleanian I love the Saints, Pelicans and the LSU tigers Geaux Tigers!!!

What is the best book you have ever read?

I read interview with a vampire in eighth grade and it was one of the few books at that age that I actually really got into
