Meet the Clay Creators

Often imitated, never duplicated. Scroll over our pictures to see more about us.

Jen

Hey it’s Jen….. I’m the leader of the pack. When I’m not running around here clicking pens or guzzling sugar free red bull I manage the best group of people I have ever worked with!! We are a crazy, silly, creative bunch; who all love what we do. Sometimes people in the office ask us – “You get paid to do that? YES WE DO!!! We get paid to create innovative products and market them so that everyone will know just how awesome Sculpey clay is! It’s a tough job but somebody’s gotta do it- right? When I am not plotting the Sculpey world domination you can find me on the tennis courts or curled up with my kindle. I also like long walks on the beach – but who doesn’t? Greek yogurt, weekly shipments from Sephora and converse sneakers – are kind of my thing – not always in that order.

Tracy

Hi my name is Tracy, I’m the sole in-house designer for the Polyform team. Supporting 5 talented Marketing & Product Development peeps keeps me runnin’. My favorite gigs around here are anything related to the children’s/tween markets (because I love to paint & illustrate) or the actual usage of our products as I am a passionate clayer myself. Just make sure you don’t get behind me in a car when I am starting a new project as that is when my greatest creative inspirations come. I first caught the polymer clay bug about 15 years ago and have been happily addicted ever after; the medium’s potential is virtually infinite. I love color, feel color, dream color....the quiet, creative, exponential experience of caning with colorful clay is so gratifying for both the left and right brain.....so as you can see, working with Polyform makes me as happy as a pig in mud....or clay, or a fish in water? or something like that. Well, anyway, ciao for now...peace, love and clay!

Vinessa

Hi, I’m Vinessa or “Nessa” as the others on our team know me as. I joined Polyform about a year ago and the rest is history. I have a pretty well rounded role at Polyform which ranges from chocolate hoarder to mannequin dresser. When I’m not falling or walking into walls (I am not the most graceful), you can usually find me working hard on the marketing team to help Jen achieve world domination. I do have an alter ego that tends to come out when our lunch order gets messed up, she is known by all the local restaurants and she is a force to be reckoned with. I love tv, movies, and fashion, so much so, that I sometimes dress in theme. A favorite team outfit of mine is nicknamed the poetry slam- black turtleneck, skinny jeans and ballet flats-all I need is a beret and to be able to write poems of course! What’s the main reason why Polyform and I mesh so well? Cause when “patterns are broken, new worlds emerge” and I definitely break the pattern!

Iris

I’m Iris and as part of Polyform’s Marketing team I wear lots of different hats – no that’s my hair in the photo. It’s often embarrassing to admit how much fun I have at Polyform - I have a blast working with our fantastic designers, I love creating with our clays, I actually enjoy attending trade shows and I’m having fun and often lots of laughs being one of the faces of our Facebook page. Fun at work and fun at home – paper crafting, cooking, reading and enjoying my awesome family. Life doesn’t get better than this.
