May 05, 2025: Doing Things Outside of Your Specialty

Sharing some insight on my path and how I got to where I am currently. Hopefully it helps those who are going through the beginning phase of their career.

-------------------------------------------
A little bit on where I come from:

I am a graduate from SUNY – College of Environmental Science with a B.S. in Wildlife Science

I graduated from SUNY – ESF Ranger School extension with an A.A.S in Environmental and Natural Resource Conservation

Spent 4 years working various public sector seasonal technician jobs around states like Missouri, Arkansas, Texas, South Carolina, and New York until I decided to turn to Private Sector work.

I mostly tackle Timber Stand Improvement projects, with a focus on wildlife habitat features and sustainable growth through thinning treatments and soil-building techniques. I strive to utilize regenerative forestry as my core focus when providing any services.

My hope is that with this channel I can introduce land owners to some basic management practices and techniques that can help them work on their own properties, or know what to look for when hiring a private forester to come work on their land if they want to follow the methods I use for my own work.
