Jeff grew up climbing trees — not professionally, just because that's what kids do when there are trees worth climbing. He didn't know then that he was training for any particular job…

He started in the forestry industry as a young man, eventually becoming a certified west coast tree faller. He spent 15 years in production logging, the kind of work where a miscalculation doesn't just cost you the job. That environment teaches you to read every tree before you touch it. To plan the fall, respect the weight, and think ten steps ahead. Not every residential arborist has worked in those conditions.

But he always loved residential tree care. The relationship with the homeowner, the precision required in tight spaces, and the satisfaction of leaving a property cleaner than you found it.
