As an ISA-certified arborist, he was a key leader in expanding our business in Orleans and on Martha’s Vineyard. His ability to execute A-Team jobs was evident when helping to create award-winning flower show displays spotlighting the history, culture, concerns, and management of important tree and shrub species in New England.”
