Why did you become an arborist?

"I became an arborist because I love the blend of art and science. The art to make a tree look beautiful and the science to maintain its health. I also felt that I could have a direct impact on the changing climate and the increase in wildfires. Building communities with healthy diverse tree canopies has a direct impact on the environment and well managed trees can help with fire mitigation. So much is advancing in the arbor industry, and it keeps me excited about being an arborist."

Customer Service Philosophy:

"I enjoy helping clients build a beautiful sustainable landscape by asking questions, listening and educating. Sometimes its hard in urban forestry because trees want to do their own thing and humans have their own agenda and sometimes, they don’t always align. I enjoy finding the balance so both can live in harmony."

Personal/Fun Fact:

"I have sailed from Hawaii to San Francisco and I lived on my sailboat for 5 years. When I’m not amongst the trees you can usually find me down on my boat. I have a cat named Cleopatra and I live in a small town 7 miles south of San Francisco that is one of the last places on the planet that you can find the endangered Mission Blue Butterfly."

There are several wires near the 2 eucalyptus trees, and they were very careful in dealing with that area. Did a fine job cleaning up, too. And Emily was wonderful in originally coming out to evaluate my trees, suggest what to have done,...

Very pleased from start to finish. Scheduling was very smooth. Office staff was very communicative. The arborist Jonathan was very nice and knowledgeable and the price was fair. Daniel and Daniel were an amazing tree crew that worked well together and cleaned up. My homeowners insurance company required that the oak branches over my roof were trimmed to 30 ft above or they would cancel my...

I called SavaTree to diagnose an ailing tree and help with tree care. Ronal and crew are true professionals who truly care about tree health and understand their role in the ecosystem. Ronal is one of the most knowledgeable arborists I’ve encountered. He explained and walked through the process and presented a detailed proposal which you can look over and approve at your own time. After the...

AMAZING service! We had a very tricky removal to perform of a massive Willow tree very close to the water. Daniel and his crew were super professional, fast, clean and the price was quite reasonable, considering the size of the job. Highly recommend this company!!! See picture for the massive amount of wood that the crew had to chop up and haul through our garage and into the truck. They left...
