Community Spotlight: Laura Williams
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!
Meet Laura Williams!
Originally from Auburn, California, Laura's upbringing as an Air Force kid gave her a taste for adventure. Armed with degrees in Cultural Anthropology, Media Arts, and International Studies, she's no stranger to diving deep into different cultures. By day, she’s working at MarketSource, but by night (and weekends), she's all about her two Akitas, spending time with her boyfriend (who’s 7 feet tall), outdoor adventures, and exploring her family tree.
Laura joined the ScanFair committee in 2023 as our vendor liaison (you might have met her during ScanFair weekend, as our go-to person for vendors, checking everybody in, assisting them with unloading, loading, and all kinds of questions ensuring everything runs smoothly and everyone feels the Nordic love) and had so much fun that she promptly hopped on board the Midsummer Committee as well.
Laura stumbled upon Nordic Northwest while searching for a way to reconnect with her Nordic heritage after losing her parents. Now, she finds joy in every moment spent celebrating Nordic culture and connecting with fellow enthusiasts.
Thank you, Laura, for your wonderful passion and enthusiasm for all things Nordic, for inspiring others, and for donating your time!
Favorite word in a Nordic language?
“Hmm, that is a hard one there are a couple that really ring true to me. Hygge, because I love the coziness and well-being. Fika, because I am often doing that for a break. Sisu because I am stubborn and stick with something to see it through, have often proven others wrong when they said I couldn’t do something. We could add in Skål because let’s celebrate!”
Such a lovely feature on Laura Williams! Her volunteer work supporting ScanFair and Midsummer events is so valuable to the Nordic Northwest community. It’s wonderful to see her passion for Nordic culture and heritage shine through. Great spotlight piece! --words

What a creative and meaningful perspective! I really enjoyed the way this article uses the idea of "monsters" to explain the importance of protecting our personal margins and creating healthy boundaries in everyday life. It's a simple remove people from photos concept, yet it carries a powerful message for both children and adults. Building confidence, resilience, and self-awareness starts with learning when to say yes, when to say no, and how to make space for rest, growth, and positive experiences.
