Your Best Choice
For Arborists in Frisco
Using certified arborists in Frisco is important because of micro-environments. An arborist who works daily in Frisco will know the trees in that community. As they zig zag between job sites through the neighborhood they will notice trees and patterns in your area. Most importantly they will know the soil in that area and how this soil type may benefit or hurt your trees in Frisco. Local certified arborists will also know disease and insects active in your area.

I have been working in tree care for the last 25 years and as the Director of Tree Health Care Development for Texas Tree Surgeons since 2020. Prior to working at Texas Tree Surgeons I was the Executive Vice President and General Manager of a Texas tree company.
I am the proud Father of Samantha (33) and Ryan (28) and Husband of Lisa for 36 years. When I am not helping trees I am a mentor to men as they face the challenges of manhood in our modern world.

Driving around the community and talking about trees with our neighbors is the best. I love what I do. I have been an arborist with Texas Tree Surgeons for the last 9 years.
I enjoy being at the lake, doing anything outdoors, baking, and watching panda videos on instagram. Pandas, and trees, make everything better.
