Quynh Nguyen (she/her)
I’m Quynh D. Nguyen. I am the paper artist behind the fine art installations of Pink and Posey. My love of paper flowers led me to founding The Posey Box, the educational branch of my business, and co-founding Paper Talk Podcast where we elevate voices from our community and beyond.
I believe strongly in sharing what I have learned about making paper flowers and being an entrepreneur. Helping others thrive on their journey is incredibly rewarding! Through speaking engagements and online courses, I share what I’ve learned from my education in marketing and finance, as well as the invaluable experience of working as a paper artist for nearly a decade.
If you’re curious to learn more about me, I invite you to read about my life before paper flowers and the profound influence my family has had on shaping my entrepreneurial path. Additionally, you can delve into the story of how my love of paper flowers blossomed into the thriving business it is today.

Tiffany Savoy (she/her)

Hi, I’m Tiffany!  I’m a licensed Therapist, Educator and ADHD Coach based in Seattle, WA.  My goal is to help lessen life’s pressures and to remind you to care for yourself as much as you care for others.

In my free time I enjoy traveling, watching live music, cooking, paddle boarding and chasing the sunshine.  I am a mom of two teenagers and two dogs, Luna and Hubble, who help me to relax and recharge outside of my work as a therapist, teacher and coach. I am also an avid learner and regularly attend workshops and conferences to stay up-to-date on the latest research and techniques in the field of mental health and ADHD.

 

Atenas Morales Aguilar (she/her)

Atenas is a botanical artist passionate about capturing the everlasting beauty of nature and preserving it through her art. She created Scarabajo as a space to share her work, which combines the traditional techniques of botanical printing and natural dyeing, using sustainably sourced materials from the Pacific Northwest and around the world. Each created piece is one-of-a-kind, showcasing the unique patterns, colors, and textures of the natural elements she works with. From delicate prints on fabric to vibrant yarns and textiles, her art brings the splendor of nature to the forefront, encouraging a deeper understanding and connection with the world around us. Her work is not only visually stunning but also meaningful, preserving the natural elements in art form and fostering a sense of respect and love for our planet.

KRISTEN RASK (SHE/HER)

Kristen is one of the organizers of Urban Craft Uprising, a maker, a baker and a reader. UCU takes up a good chunk of my time but when I’m not clacking away on my computer, I can often be found in my studio crocheting a variety of food items, baking for an occasion or simply because I have an extra tablespoon of lemon juice I simply can’t let go to waste OR reading. My goal for 2023 is to have just as much fun as I work and continue to build on community. I LOVE the maker community and feel so grateful to have landed in a craft show over 25 years ago. I have participated in many craft shows in the country over those years, wrote 8 or 9 craft books and love working with small businesses SO MUCH. Camp is definitely one of my favorite events to plan for all year! When I think of camp I am almost as starry eyed as I am here looking at this amazing dessert. I can’t wait to see you all!

LYDIA BREWER (she/her)

Lydia works full-time as a portrait photographer in the Magnolia neighborhood of Seattle. She lives with her husband, teenage daughter and a wealth of furry family members. She obtained a degree in commercial photography in the 90’s and has done one form of photography or another ever since. Aside from photography, her hobbies mostly involve roller skating, rabbits, holiday decorating, cross-stitch, all things 1960’s era, podcasts and David Bowie. This is her fourth year teaching/attending Camp Thundercraft and she could not be more excited! 

lindsey ross (she/her)

A lifelong entrepreneur, Lindsey Ross has been organizing the Urban Craft Uprising for 18 years, and craft show vending for 15. She is also the owner of Yarnia, a custom yarn shop in Portland, which she recently transitioned from a brick & mortar to an online-only business out of her home. She loves finding ways for businesses to run more efficiently, and designing systems to make that happen. She also loves spreadsheets…A LOT. On her off hours you may catch her biking around town with her husband and a jambox, catching live local bluegrass, clocking her 10,000 steps with her pitbull Tucker, or knitting simultaneously with any other activity that doesn’t require both hands.

Camp ThunderCraft wouldn’t be nearly as awesome without our generous sponsors! All these wonderful businesses are helping out in some way to make sure the weekend is super fantastic.
