Michele With Nature's Expression since: November 2014

Favourite Product: Anything Labradorite the shinier the better

Why did you join the Nature's Expression Team?: I felt immediately at home when I started here in 2014 and I learned so much from Greg & Linda-Ann

Karen - Corporate Buyer

Karen - Apophyllite With Nature's Expression since: 2003

Who inspires you most at NE and why: Greg - The amount of effort he has put into the company over the years is Amazing. Just seeing how he did Tucson Gem show all by himself was eye opening. All the effort that goes into getting the goods from ALL the suppliers would be unbelievable to most people. Not a lot of Business owners would put that much effort into acquiring some of the rarer items for individual customers. And the fact that he will not buy something someone has requested if he cannot re-sell it at a reasonable price is admirable.

Favorite Memory / Experience here: My first trip to buy goods at the Tucson Gem show. I was in awe of how big the show was and the diversity of products shown there. I saw many items I would like to have in my personal collection. Attending the Gem and Mineral show continues to be the highlight of my year here.

Favorite Product: I'm not sure I have ONE favourite product. It is the crystals and specimens that draw the most attention from me. I am constantly amazed at the beautiful things that Mother Earth produces. But if I had to pick a favourite it would probably be the apophylite clusters. Especially the ones with other inclusions to add to the uniqueness of them.



Vicky - Manufacturing Work Leader

Vikki With Nature's Expression since: 2004 - I started first with just piecework and then I joined the warehouse team.

Favorite Memory / Experience here: The Christmas parties!

Favorite Product: I really love all of our bracelets!



Melissa - Marketing Projects Manager

Mel with sheep With Nature's Expression since: January 2010

Who inspires you most at NE and why: Greg Stump inspires me to make decisions that have a positive ripple effect - on myself, my team, the whole company and our customers. He has always provided guidance through positive reinforcement and by his own example.

Favorite Memory / Experience here: I worked at the Head Office for 6 years and when I was ready to chase my dream of building a homestead on Vancouver Island, Greg and Linda-Ann supported me in working remotely. When I visit every couple months it's like a family reunion. I also love it when the whole team dresses up for a themed staff event - seeing people in costume shows a side that is silly and fun. Our team building workshops with horses facilitated by Linda-Ann are truly special. I always feel more grounded and much closer to my work family.

Favorite Product: When I look closely at a crystal or mineral it gets my imagination going. Sometimes I can see a whole world inside of a quartz point with inclusions, or I'll find that perfect wish stone because it has beautiful markings. My absolute favourite stone is labradorite, the way it catches the light and looks like the Northern lights. I have many of our products in my home - a salt lamp in my living room, prayer flags all over my garden and bells on my front gate.



Margaux (AKA Frenchie) - Account Manager

Margaux With Nature's Expression since: 2013

Fave Products: Labradorite stone - Lore of the Inuit peoples claim "Labradorite fell from the frozen fire of the Aurora Borealis, an ordinary stone that transforms to the extraordinary, shimmering in a mystical light that separates the waking world from unseen realms."

About Me: On top of the French language and European culture I incorporate into my customer service, I always listen and learn what you like to make sure you receive the best quality of service and product. I aim to bring you closer to Nature's Expression! Ask me for a video tour, a skype or a Facetime. I provide a superior customer experience because of my positive energy. This stems from my passions of sailing, biking and beaching. "The five ups of life: Buckle up, Start up, Keep it up, Don't give up, Cheer up"



Alex - Pricing & Special Projects Coordinator

With Nature's Expression since: 2017

Who inspires you most at NE and why: Michele – selfless and holds no judgement, has seen the good, bad and ugly from everyone here and still comes smiling trying to help and gives her all.

Favorite Memory / Experience here: Too many to count but a few gems...
  • Greg’s apple of the earth talk
  • Accidentally backordering a customer survey code (after being told not to)
  • Dumb questions or the “they’ve seen it all mistakes”
  • Picking / Packing and meowing to other staff
  • Finding out I was pregnant and how supportive and helpful people were.

Favorite Product: My top 5: Amber, Amethyst, Labradorite, all moonstone (mostly blue) and gold tiger eye.



Luis - Shipping Department

Favorite Memory / Experience here: 2018 Halloween and my Bruno Mars uptown funk outfit

Favorite Product: Meteorite Specimen – I have always been fascinated by astronomy.



Aron - Sales & Marketing Work Leader

Aron in sunglasses With Nature's Expression since: January 2021

Why did you join the Nature's Expression team?: The family atmosphere, wanting to learn a new industry, and the impression my interviewer gave off!

Favorite Memory / Experience here: The May birthday’s BBQ. It was awesome to have the entire building come together for an hour and celebrate all the birthday’s our team has in May.

About Me: I’m an athlete, and I love sports! My favourite sport to play/coach is soccer, but I can sit in front of a TV for 11 hours on a Sunday and watch American football.



Carol - Receiver

With Nature's Expression since: March 2021

Who inspires you most at NE and why: Hard to say when you have all these amazing women around you. I’d have to say all of them inspire me. What can I say, I have a soft heart when talking about strong, smart and incredible female leaders.

Favorite Memory / Experience here: Everyday is a new experience, I’m always learning something new which is awesome, and the good memories I have are always related to somebody laughing about a joke or a silly mistake someone made.

Favorite Product: Majestic Manganese – Purple Quartz Cluster



Jessica (Jess) - Account Manager

Jessica with amethyst With Nature's Expression since: July 2021

Who inspires you most at NE and why: Margaux! - She’s constantly spreading positive vibes and good energy around the office. Being new to this role, Margaux has been an amazing teacher and motivator.

Alexia - Account Manager

alexia with horse With Nature's Expression since: April 2022

Favourite Product: If it has a rainbow or flash, I'm in love!

Why did you join the Nature's Expression Team?: To share my love of crystals with the world.

Who inspires you most at NE and why: Everyone here at Nature’s Expression has been very inspiring. So many strong and independent leaders all working cohesively under one roof.

Favorite Memory / Experience here: First walking into the building for my interview. I was greeted by a huge wall filled with beautiful Amethyst pieces, every corner I turned I saw more stunning specimens.

About Me: My entire life is consumed by my horses and dogs. I take pride in overall wellness for not only them but myself and others. In my spare time I practice holistic healing techniques such as reiki, massage, and other methods for my equine partners. Working at Nature’s Expression is helping me to dive deeper into the world of crystals and expand my knowledge.



Xavier - Account Manager

xavier With Nature's Expression since: October 2023

Favorite Memory / Experience here: Every time I call clients from the east of the country and have the chance to hear their beautiful singing accent! That makes me travel and I feel so much peace and love from all these people sharing the same goal: Bringing light into the world.

Favorite Product: Abalone shells, pendants with silver twist, Strawberry Quartz products in general (I love it), and our collection of pendulums!

About Me: A Frenchman originally from Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean, I have been lucky enough to travel a lot since I was a child. One of my favorite trips was to South Africa. Passionate about spirituality and always open to new discoveries, I love learning from others. My approach to the world is very sensitive and adaptable. I consider myself to be a great listener. I enjoy hiking, drawing, and joking with people. Every day, I am grateful for where I am and stay positive no matter what! That's how I see life, as a great adventure!



Quentin - Account Manager

quentin With Nature's Expression since: 2024

Fave Products: My favourite product is the titanium aura amethyst. It has such an elegant sheen that mixes in so well with the dark and earthy base that, as far as I'm concerned, is the visual equivalent of drinking a perfectly roasted, black as night, blend of coffee.

About Me: Born and raised in the Midwest, sharpened in the fast-paced cities of the East Coast, and now settled in the far North. I've worked in more industries than I can count and have picked up more skills than you can shake a stick at. But if there's one thing experience teaches you, it's knowing when you've found something special. I'm truly honoured to be part of Nature's Expression. The people I work with, and you, reading this, are what make it all worthwhile. If you're ever curious to meet someone who proudly owns a Stetson cowboy hat - I'm your guy!
