In honor of International Women in Engineering day, our Employee Spotlight is Norma Villegas, one of Aquatic Design Group’s experienced drafters. Norma is a breath of fresh air. She’s level-headed, even-keeled, pleasant to be around, a talented designer, and a hard worker. She has grown and evolved over the last four years to be a key member of our design team and she makes everyone around her better as well. We’re so proud to have her on our team. Our only complaint is that we haven’t figured out a way to clone her yet! Get to know Norma a bit better below.

We’re thrilled to feature our rockstar office manager first - Cara Johnson. It's true what they say… not all heroes wear capes! From human resources to accounting, from project contract reviewer to mind reader, therapist, and doer of whatever needs to be done to make our office successfully function, she can multitask while multi-tasking. Cara has been a fundamental part of Aquatic Design Group’s success over the last 14 years. She's also a dedicated wife and mom of two great kids, a middle school band booster board member, and a (self-professed) mediocre violinist, terrible gardener, and amateur ornithologist. We appreciate Cara and the talent, love, and kindness she applies to everything she does!
