Getting to know your EOF Optician: Emily B.
How Long with Eyes on Fremont:
Emily has been a part of the EOF family for 2.5 years, joining the crew while in the midst of her Opticianry program degree at Seattle Central. She graduated & obtained her license in 2014!
Her EOF “Specialty”:
Although Emily is a skilled “front-end” optician, she really enjoys working on the lab/production side of things as well. She splits her time in the shop doing lens finishing work, repairs, sunclip production, and dispensing/adjusting. Emily prefers to exercise her “tactile” skills wherever she can in the shop!
What motors Emily’s interests & what keeps her happily “scooting” along:
Emily balances work & play really well- engaging herself off the clock with the light-hearted, the off-beat, the creative & quirky things in life.
She finds interest in collecting natural “oddities”, fun & colorful trinkets, & is a fetishist for Hello Kitty paraphernalia. If she’s not scootering around town, she probably is chilling out crafting or sewing cool things like hand-bags & vintage-inspired items. She prefers and appreciates the “old-school way” for her art process & aesthetics.
The bottom line with Emily is to approach life with a little sense of humor & fun!
Customers around the Shop: Ash S.
Ash came in for a new pair at the very end of the year & picked up this charming Andy Wolf frame– with little effort, he pinned down a perfect fit that is stylish & sharp 🙂
Customers around the Shop: Wen Arto!!!!
Wen Arto is one of our favorite long-time loyal patrons (and fabulous friend!) of EOF.
Beyond his outgoing, boisterous personality, what we appreciate so much about Wen is his bold confidence in styling! Wenarto is notorious for donning cool & unique glasses everyday & we adore him for sharing in the enthusiasm of special eyewear collections- especially this Valley Eyewear style!
To all of our Patrons and Friends of EYES ON FREMONT, have a wonderful NEW YEAR- We appreciate you!
Celebrate & give thanks 🙂
Eyes on Fremont giving thanks this holiday season
In light of the holiday season, Eyes on Fremont wanted to give back to some part of our community that deserves our recognition for what they have given. This year we would like to acknowledge the efforts and service of Veterans through SOLDIERS ANGELS.
For each complete pair purchased at our shop starting December 15th through the end of the year, we are gratefully donating a pair of glasses to the Puget Sound chapter of Soldiers Angels, an organization that provides support & living services for the growing number of Veterans in our area.
It is a small gesture on our part, but one that we hope generates more awareness to a group of people who deserve our appreciation for giving so much for our community.
