My Work history at Bullfrog Spas
I started out with Bullfrog Spas as a production line worker, and moved through many different departments during my time there. I finally reached my last position as a Production Engineering Technician in 2021. I have great interpersonal communication skills, am extremely reliable, and I learn new things really quickly. I can provide references as well as a ton of the projects I have done in both SolidWorks and SketchUp ( which is modeling software for FlexPipe), which I am very proficient at.
