I’m so excited to finally introduce Elaine, who has officially joined us at Academy Optical in her new “post-retirement gig.” We used to work together, and when I heard she retired, I thought that was it—but lucky for us, Elaine came out of retirement for a couple of days a week to help us out, and we couldn’t be more grateful 🫶🏽!

Having “Mama Elaine” in the office brings such a calming presence. Her positivity, warmth, and steady energy make the space feel more like a family—and it truly does feel like a family now.

Thank you, Elaine, for bringing your beautiful spirit into our little corner of the world. We’re so lucky to have you 🙏🏽🤍

It was an absolute honor to fit former Senator of Manitoba, Janis Johnson, with these stunning black Prada frames. Right before the holidays, she took them home—a perfect blend of timeless style and sophistication.

Introducing Kim! ✨

After working together for many years in the past, I’m beyond excited to have her join us at Academy Optical as our new bookkeeper. It’s such a gift to work with someone I trust and admire, and I can’t wait for all the fun venting sessions and those familiar sounds she makes while working 😂! I’ve missed them so much ❤️!

Welcome aboard, Kim! Here’s to creating something amazing together. 👓
