What do you love most about your job?
-The most rewarding aspect of being an arborist is the reaction I receive while educating tree owners of the complexity of trees, their ability to communicate with one another, how they raise their offspring and the overall health benefits of being in nature surrounded by trees. To witness a glimpse of excitement, awe and wonder come across their faces is a magical experience I can’t imagine living my life without now.
