Yissel
OPTICIAN/ CREATIVE DIRECTOR
One of our most creative team members at Optik PDX, Yissel brings her artistic talents and gets the chance to do what she loves every single day.
“I have been with Optik PDX for about six months now. I am an Optician as well as the Director of Marketing. I not only fit and style people in their eyewear, but I also get the pleasure of letting the world see what we do. I do the photography and manage all of our social media accounts keeping everyone up to date with the latest fashion styles.”
If you follow us on social media, it’s Yissel’s handiwork you’ve seen, as she captures stunning images of the gorgeous frames we carry.
Yissel began working in the optical industry in 2013 with the intention of becoming a receptionist, but was hired as an optician and learned the ins and outs of the industry on the job. She loves the amount of patient care the team at Optik PDX provides and is proud to call our shop home.
Her current frame favorites are: “The new Matsuda M2022 in Champagne – but I already sold it! My second favorite frame in the store would be the Anne et Valentin Birdy. It’s unique and eye-catching for those that dare to be bold.”
