Wendy Jo DeSmidt-Kohlhoff is a contestant from Survivor: Nicaragua.

Wendy intentionally isolated herself from the tribe and did not strategize with other contestants, afraid that her voluble personality would irritate her tribemates. Due to her lack of social bonds, and chastising the tribe for not speaking to her, she was voted out at the first Tribal Council.

Being 48 years old, Wendy was placed on the older Espada tribe. She was approached by tribemate Holly Hoffman for an alliance. Surprised that Holly deemed her as trustworthy, Wendy agreed to the proposition to further herself into the competition. However, when Espada lost the first Immunity Challenge, Wendy's peculiar disposition and perceived weakness became factors for ousting her. At Tribal Council, despite Wendy's last-ditch effort to save herself by telling her best attributes, her speech worked against her. The rest of Espada, including Holly, sent her home after a unanimous 9-1 vote.
