      Optical Engineer

      I work hand in hand with the Eyewear designers to help bring their vision to life! I design programs and machines based on their designs and specs to create frames for multiple brands under Europa Eyewear. When I took over the role of Process Manager two years ago I was the 5th member in an already established team, that team has now grown to 15 people and we have reached heights I never thought possible. Between setting up machines, creating new frame styles, managing production orders, and giving team meetings, I still manage to find time to truly love what I do. Creating Eyewear is never the career I thought I would have, but it is one that I am incredibly passionate and proud of. Show less
