Carisa is a Certified Paraoptometric and is a member of the American Optometric Association.  With more than six years of experience as an optician, lab technician, and paraoptometric she can assist in many aspects of the office.  Although she works more behind the scenes as the office manager, she still enjoys helping patients during preliminary testing and in choosing glasses.  Carisa is currently studying to become a certified optician, as well as the next level of certification for paraoptometrics.  

If you have any suggestions to help us reach our goal of - 'patients first - always!' - please let me know!

Kathy became part of the vision center team a year ago after being an optician and lab technician for ten years.  Although she specializes in the optical side of the office, she has learned the optometric side very quickly and enjoys it as well.  Kathy is currently preparing to take the American Board of Opticianry exam in order to obtain certification as an optician and to continue to educate patients on the newest technology for their eye care needs.
