Description

I earned a SAF accredited BS in Forest Resource Management from the University of Missouri-Columbia and I have 4.5 years of experience with the US Forest Service. I have experience marking and cruising timber, laying out boundaries for timber sales, inspecting timber sales and monitoring BMP's, conducting forest inventory, and urban forest management. While obtaining my degree, I would volunteer at our forestry club Christmas tree farm, where we would shear Christmas trees, spray pesticides, and market our trees.
