Say hello to our new team members!


Village Optical would like to say a big warm welcome to the newest members of our team!

We sat down with them and got to know them a little better so that you can get to know them too.

First up, say hello to Doug Jones! He's a certified contact lens optician.




What made you want to work at Village Optical?

It's an exciting new venture. The atmosphere is awesome, the dispensary is great, and it's very good for serving the clientele.

How was your first week?

Very good. Even better than my expectations.

What are some of your hobbies?

Horseback riding, walking my dog, and biking.



Next up, say hello to Nicole Shewel! She's joined the team as a licensed optician.



What made you want to work at Village Optical?

I heard good things. It has nice people, a laid-back atmosphere, and new digs (she gestures to the finished construction behind her).

How was your first week?

Busy, but good!

What are some of your hobbies?

I do wire jewellery, jewellery wrapping, photography, art, painting--stuff like that.



Last but not least, Wendy Danish, our receptionist, returns to us after 6 months--and we couldn't be more pleased to have her back!



What made you want to work at Village Optical?

The atmosphere is very friendly. It's just nice to be able to help people. 

How was your first week back?

It's all coming back to me now so it's much easier.

What are some of your hobbies?

Animals--I like to play with my dog a lot--and I play a lot of piano.
