At Expert Tree Service & Science, we are more than just a tree removal company. We are a dedicated team of ISA-certified arborists who are deeply passionate about the health, safety, and beauty of your trees!
Our roots run deep in the arboriculture industry. Our owners, Tony and Chris, originally started their own separate tree care businesses — Tony in 2009 and Chris in 2011. Over the years, they found themselves frequently sharing information, tools, and a mutual vision for what a premier tree care company should look like.
In 2019, they officially partnered up and merged their companies to form Expert Tree Service & Science. The driving force behind this merger was simple: they both wanted to deliver incredibly high-quality arboricultural services, prioritize key customer communication, and maintain the highest safety standards in the industry.
Today, our team has grown to 16 full-time employees, including 13 highly trained crew members, a dedicated sales professional, and our outstanding office staff.
When we say "Science," we mean it. We do not just blindly cut branches or remove trees without a second thought. We are incredibly passionate about education — both for our own crew and for our clients.
Our mission is to help educate you on your tree care options using clear, honest advice and science-based solutions. Whether we are diagnosing a complex fungal disease or executing a highly technical structural pruning, we want you to understand why we are doing it.
When you hire Expert Tree Service & Science, you are inviting professionals onto your property who operate by a strict set of core values:
I'm an ISA Certified Arborist with a degree in Urban Forestry from the University of Wisconsin-Steven's Point. I have over 20 years of experience, and I take pride in understanding each tree's overall system to ensure its health from the roots up.
I'm a competitive tree climber, earning my way into 6 master's challenges, a state championship, and an international ranking. I love outdoor recreation and spending time with my family.
I'm an ISA Certified Arborist, with over 20 years of experience in the tree care industry. I'm skilled at determining just what your trees need to bring them back to health and beauty.
I'm passionate about providing great service to our customers and making sure you are happy with our work.
I love playing hockey, downhill skiing with my family, and playing golf with my kids.
I've been with Expert Tree since 2014. I handle customer service, billing, and back-office support, and I truly enjoy being the connection between our customers and our crews in the field.
Outside of work, I'm kept busy by my three kids and one granddaughter. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling to AZ and spending quality time with my family.
I joined Expert Tree in March of 2021 after spending 25 years in the travel industry.
I enjoy traveling, fishing, and hockey, and I especially love spending time with my two young grandsons—hopefully on the ice someday soon.
I began my career in the tree industry 20 years ago. Starting out in an entry-level position, I quickly realized how important this ever-evolving industry really is. I became skilled at tree climbing, and competed at the local tree climbing competitions where I placed in the top 10 two years in a row.
I climbed my way through the ranks and became an ISA Certified Arborist in 2009. I also earned a CTSP (Certified Tree Care Safety Professional) and achieved various leadership positions. I'm now the Sales Manager for Expert Tree Service, and take great pride in working directly with clients.
I enjoy spending time with my family, going to classic car shows, and camping out on the ice fishing for Walleyes.
