Christyn Breckenridge eats, sleeps, & breathes the world of eyewear. When it comes to designing a frame or fitting a face , Christyn is strategic in blending her social philosophy & style influence . The Memphis raised , Houston paid enthusiast pays homage to her great grandmother & her sorority (Delta Sigma Theta) for instilling the values of community service, academic excellence & infinite fashion within her. She studied Occupational Therapy at Tennessee State University (same school as Oprah) before working in luxury real estate for 8 years. After being laid off & watching her father battle glaucoma she realized her hobby needed something more meaningful. She organized a mission around her glasses to eliminate vision problems and it’s consequences during her yearly overseas missionary travels.
Her program collaborations w/local community based non profits & medical clinics provides vision screenings, eye exams and affordable eyewear to the underserved & uninsured. The brands monthly & now permanent pop up shops educate communities about the importance of vision care and the role it plays in literacy, society and the economy. Christyn continues to create innovative ways to build awareness about the strong connection between healthy vision and education.
