My previous occupation is best described as an engineering mix. I conducted both research and process work for BiOWiSH Technologies. Research work included conducting agricultural trials with our product, and taking notes every step of the way. Analyzing data originating from around the globe in such a way that produces reliable results presentable to the Agronomy department at BiOWiSH. Process work included preparing, producing and packaging product from its raw materials, safely and efficiently, all while operating under GMP guidelines. I maintained, operated and continually cleaned a safe environment as a critical piece of my puzzle as a BiOWiSH Technologies employee. Show less
