Todd Dorr
PRODUCTION MANAGER / Estimator | 15+ Years Experience
I am from New Richmond, WI where I was born and raised. I attended Chippewa Valley Technical College in 2009-2010 where I received my diploma in Auto Collision Repair. Following graduation, I started my career at Marquardt in Lake Hallie and then moved to closer to home and worked at Bernard’s Northtown in New Richmond till 2016. I also went to California in 2011 and received my certification in Paintless Dent Repair (PDR). In 2016, I started working at Hassis Paintworks. Outside of work I enjoy hunting goose, coyote, and deer. I also enjoy riding my motorcycle, along with the projects my wife starts and needs me to help her with.
Bre Lovro
Estimator | 5+ Years Experience
I grew up in Somerset, WI and got my start in the auto body industry in 2020. I began as a CSR and worked my way through parts and production, gaining hands-on experience in every step of the repair process. In 2022, I moved into estimating and quickly found my passion. I enjoy being out in the shop, working alongside technicians and seeing repairs come together — it helps me write more accurate estimates that reflect what is needed for all repairs. I take pride in being part of the shop environment, keeping up with the techs, and staying in the middle of the action.
Outside of work, I enjoy time at my camper, riding side-by-sides, being out on the boat, and hanging out with my two dogs
Mike Parks
Fiberglass Repair Technician | 40+ Years Experience
I started my career at Johnson Boat Works in 1983. My dad was a boat builder and made all the molds. There I began working in the fiberglass shop where I learned boat building and mold making. When the company sold, I went on my own doing repairs for marinas and customers. In 2003, my dad and I had the opportunity to build a 38 foot racing “A” scow for Brad Robinson. We started with a rough plug and proceeded to build the molds and then the boat. It was named Victory and for good reason. I’ve met many great people in the boating world. Now, I am working for Hassis. Chris, Jana and our crew are superior. There is literally nothing we can’t fix and the quality of our work is outstanding. I know how boats are built and the strength/cosmetics it takes to repair a boat properly.
Robbie Stenger
Fiberglass & Body Repair Technician | 25+ Years Experience
In 1992, I started detailing cars for my dad, family, and friends. Few years later I started working at an auto body repair facility where I also worked on boats doing fiberglass, gelcoat, structure repairs, stringer, transom, and core replacements. After 13 years, I decided to try a couple different things such as starting my own business and also working in the Aero Space field. In 2015, I started working for Afton Yacht Club doing fiberglass and gelcoat repairs. My biggest accomplishment was when I restored a 1974 Chris Craft boat from keel to flybridge, removing soft floors to refinishing the entire boat. A few years later I took a position at Kings Cove Marina running their fiberglass and gelcoat department. In 2022, I joined the Hassis Paintworks team. I work on both aluminum boats, fiberglass boats, personal watercrafts, trailers, and recreational vehicles – our team is top notch.
In my spare time I enjoy boating on the river in my Eliminator boat, going to my kids’ sports, and spending time with family and friends.
Jason Rogers
Refinish Technician | 25+ Years Experience
I have worked on basically everything, including: airplanes, boats, tractors, collector cars/trucks, race cars, European war plane, every type of automobile, motorcycles, campers, etc. I started working as an autobody technician/painter in 1997 part time and then transitioned to full time in 1999. I am a hardworker, problem solver, and I pay attention to detail. I was born and raised in New Richmond, WI. I enjoy hunting, being outdoors, riding motorcycle, shooting trap, and spending time at our cabin with my wife and our 2 dogs.
Michael Slicer
Autobody Technician | 15+ Years Experience
I’ve always had a passion for working on vehicles, and that led me to WyoTech in Laramie, WY in 2011 where I built the foundation for my career as a body technician. Since then, I’ve been working hands-on in the shop and continuing to grow my skills every day. I take pride in my work and especially enjoy building custom vehicles.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my kids, going to truck and tractor pulls, and checking out car shows whenever I get the chance.
Jason Sawyer
Detail Technician | 30+ Years Experience
With over 30 years of experience in the auto detailing industry, I began my journey at just 15 years old, washing cars at St. Croix Carwash. What started as a first job quickly turned into a lifelong passion. I take great pride in transforming vehicles—cars, boats, and campers—so they leave in better condition than when they arrived. There’s nothing more rewarding to me than seeing the dramatic before-and-after results and knowing I’ve made a real difference in the appearance and care of each vehicle.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, kids, and our three dogs. When I’m not detailing, you can usually find me out on the golf course, at the bowling alley, or cheering on my favorite team as a dedicated Chicago Bears fan.
