Nordic Northwest’s Community Spotlights celebrate the valuable contributions, enthusiasm, and achievements of members in the Nordic community. Thank you to all of our dedicated and supportive community members!
Carin first helped with the Nordic Vintage & Treasure Sale in 2021. Now an integral part of the committee, one of her favorite things about the sale still is uncovering the hidden treasures donated and finding them loving new homes. Carin, who has volunteered at numerous events, workshops and Nordic Nights, is also a Fogelbo tour docent, a role she thoroughly enjoys as she shares the rich history of the house, its collection, and Ross’ life story with visitors.
Growing up in New York, Carin studied Business, Economics & Architecture at Lehigh University. She now lives in Sherwood, Oregon, with her husband, George. They have two daughters who have "grown and flown." With a passion for architecture and design, Carin also enjoys exploring gardens, museums, and learning new crafts in her free time.
Carin’s deep connection to her Swedish roots — her grandparents immigrated to the U.S. 100 years ago — informs her love of Nordic culture, which she shares through her volunteer work, believing strongly “in the transformative power of giving back.” Her favorite Nordic holiday is Julafton, which she celebrates by recreating her farmor's (grandmother's) traditional feast.
Thank you so very much for all you do, Carin! You are amazing!
