I have been an arborist for 7 years and before I began working for Texas Tree Surgeons I used to collect, gather and split firewood. It was mostly for personal use but sometimes I helped a friend with acquiring and splitting wood for a mobile wood burning pizza he operated.

I am passionate about educational outreach to help people connect with trees. I’ve been in the field as an horticulturist since 2006,  and became a certified arborist in 2012.  My learning career has included many facets of both retail nursery and commercial arboriculture. I serve on the Board of Directors and volunteer on the education committee for the Texas chapter of ISA.

I am fortunate to be the mother of three beautiful daughters, they’re my favorite to watch grow! I also enjoy both tending to my vegetable/herb garden and adding native plants to my landscape.

I have been in tree care for almost 2 years and love sharing knowledge about trees. I graduated during the pandemic from Tarrant County College with an AS in Horticulture. Before that I was a journeyman electrician for 16 years. I play bass semi-professionally and have a band Local Union that you can find online.
