Meet Yoni
We’re excited to introduce you to Yoni Marker, our new Thrift Store Coordinator. She’ll be responsible for overseeing dayto- day operations, providing outstanding customer service, coordinating the store’s volunteers and keeping the store clean, safe and welcoming.
Yoni is a Pacific Northwest girl—she was born in Bellingham. She says her family and friends mean the world to her and have supported her in many ways. Yoni was homeschooled by her university professor and musician father, and she and her brother grew to love the local music scene. Her mom and abuelita taught her to be strong and independent and to embrace not only her Spanish culture but the culture of everyone around her.
Yoni loves fashion, so she is a great fit for the Thrift Store! A self-proclaimed fashionista, she sees fashion as a way to express music, culture and independence. Yoni began creating her own style and clothing based on vintage pieces, and she eventually followed her passion to Seattle. Working on and off in the fashion industry, she found many friends who have encouraged her to pursue her dreams. A few years later, Yoni paid it forward by helping her younger sister find her way in Seattle. From fashion, music, books, wine and her two cats,
Yoni has many loves but always makes time for her family and friends. She says, “Don’t dream it, be it.”
