Getting to Know your EOF Front End Coordinator: Madison!

Here’s Madison!

How Long with Eyes on Fremont: 


Coming close to 2 years; Madison is our summer baby… She started here in July 2013.



Her EOF “Specialty”: 

Madison has a unique position at Eyes on Fremont. While not an actual optician, her proposed job titles include (but are not limited to): Front end manager, Opticians’ assistant, office support, customer service support,store greeter/hostess (with the mostest!), store photographer….
  We actually like to think of Madison as the “glue” holding our busy little shop together!



What Madison is doing when she’s not “directing traffic” in our bustling shop:

This gal is quite artistic! Beyond taking fabulous photographs, she does things like bake, paint, and her latest creative venture: card making. Madison finger painted the striped shirt wall hanging below (which further affirms our suspicions about her love of striped things).  
Madison is drawn to organizing and enhancing the visual fields around her- to decorate her new, cozy micro studio is her collection of succulents in aesthetically pleasing pots & glass bowls.  Madison is an enthusiast of this particular plant variety- she has a collection of over twenty now!



Jade plant in decorative ceramic pottery, white and black frames from Italy, Hand-painted work by Madison, and one of her handmade card designs.

Madison also loves pigs; she states that pigs are actually considered good luck in German culture!

Customers Around the Shop: Mark T.

Eyes on Fremont lives by the motto, “great frames for every face.”  Mark exemplifies this with his new green/striped round frame from InHouse in Portland, Oregon.  
He could be wearing any number of other cool designs… yet, this pair? 
It brings a great sense of personality to his presence!  

Customers around the shop: Kristine M. & Co.

Kristine rocks in this new set of matte yellow, p3 shape eyeglasses from Italy! She dares to set the bar high in this funky color scheme- the look is simply awesome.


For those of you who follow the EOF blog regularly, Kristine may seem a familiar face already… 

 This just happens to be her turn to shine in a new pair! 
Her partner Caroline got a great pair recently & we featured the family back in January!

an adorable family portrait! 
See Caroline’s blogpost from January… as these spunky gals like to make their trips a family affair! 🙂

Getting to Know your EOF Optician: Milli

Optician: Milli

How Long with Eyes On Fremont:
 4 years!  Milli has been a licensed dispensing optician since April 2011. 


Her EOF “Specialty”: 
Milli actually came on board while still attending the Opticianry program at SCCC. She worked as our very first front end “greeter/host” for our busy shop days. She has a natural energy working with people partly due to her extensive background and years working in PR & Marketing for magazines. 

What defines Milli as a person: 
Milli identifies strongly with her Italian roots & a things that tend to define her culture:  Food, family, & fun! 


Clockwise, L to R: Milli’s straw vacuum hat, Silver frame from MotherBaugh, Yin-yang silver necklace, family heirloom cooking spoon, “Milli” from Roger Eye Design, Vagrancy Designs sunglass, Rosetta Stone Italiano, “Welcome Giancarlo” sauce can from her 1st son’s baby shower.

She is currently planning another trip to Mexico with her family: her husband and two sons, who are her inspiration & livelihood. 
She describes her sons as “day & night” but both compliment one another & bring balance to her life, much like yin & yang.  
In addition to the family dynamic, she balances duty & work with fun– enjoying music concerts with her eldest son (they went to see Eminem & Rhianna just this fall!) & warm weather family vacations every year. 
 And, there’s no better way to appreciate your loved ones than with some well prepared home cooking: something she picked up from her mother (she still cooks her best dishes with her Ma’s spoon). 
Just a few of the reasons that Milli has one of the sunniest dispositions of our opticians at Eyes on Fremont.

Dante, Milli, Giancarlo, & Harry



Customers around the Shop: Eric J

Eric turns up the volume with this matte white P3 shape! It’s an intriguing eyewear style that pushes the boundaries of classic & funky… Look for Eric & his new frames at a Seattle Symphony performance soon- he is one of Seattle Symphony’s newest members.
