About Me:
I was born and raised in a small town B.C, where I got my love for the adventure and the outdoors. I studied Sociology and Law in Ottawa at Carleton University. Some of my favourite things are surfing, reading and travelling. I’ve been around tree planting my whole life. I love the planting because of how unique every day can be; what you are willing to put into it you will get out of it. |

Industry Experience:
This is my second year as a Crew boss and my 7th year in the industry. During my first two seasons I came out after high school for July. Since then I’ve completed four full seasons as a planter. Though out those seasons I have been both a rookie trainer and driver. Last season I was allowed to build and run a very successful crew. This gave me experience running and training a crew, as well as a better understanding and appreciation for the industry. I am so excited about this up and coming season.
Expectations: Planters & Crew boss
What I expect from you I expect from myself, I am a firm believer in leading by example.
Good Work Ethic – I will be giving it 100% every day and I expect you to do the same, this job is hard and you need to be willing to put in the work.
Motivation – I expect each of you to have your personal goals, and I expect you to achieve them. I will be here to support you, but you will need to be able to motivate yourself to achieve your goals.
Perseverance – Not going to sugar coat it, there will be days you will want to quit; but pushing through those days is what makes this job so satisfying.
Respect – This not only means respect for your crew, but it also means respect for yourself and everyone around you. Tree planting is not only a job it is also a community.
Communication – To work effectively as a team communication is crucial; this will allow us to understand and help each other.
Goal for next season:
My goal is to have the best crew and the best season possible! I am here to support you and work as a team. I want to cultivate a fun and safe environment both on and off the block. I will work my hardest to have full days, lots of trees and a tone of fun. I understand that everyone is different but we all have the same goal. Make money and have fun! You will end this season with life long memories and good friends but most importantly, a killer bank account. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
