OUR TEAM

As the Nature’s Finest Landscape and Turf department manager my job is making your  landscape and turf healthy for a more beautiful home.

I am committed. 

I ensure that the correct treatments for your lawn and landscape are applied at the right time and in the correct way, protecting our environment for our future generations.  For example, in the fall I’ve seen others offer to kill the whiteflies on your crepe myrtles for about $150. My team and I will encourage you to wait until the leaves fall off.  That fly’s natural cycle is to die anyway when the leaves fall.  My attention to detail and knowledge of horticulture, ornamental diseases and life cycles of bugs gives me the skills to monitor your lawn and landscape and choose the treatment plan that is most effective. I have attention to detail creating a green and healthy lawn.  It usually makes your neighbor green with envy.  

My team will work to get rid of harmful bugs you have in your grass, plants, shrubs, or trees. We work to keep the good bugs that help the plants stay healthy, fighting off harmful bugs, and give your plants the beautiful blooms you look for. My best friend is my wife Liz, who is beautiful, talented and exceptionally smart and kind. We have four young children that keep us both on our toes.  Also, my wife tells me that I love to walk on the moonlit beach and that I have a wit that won’t quit.

I have always enjoyed nature, and am fascinated as I study how organisms work together to maintain a balanced ecosystem.  That fascination motivated me to study Environmental Sciences at Florida State University.  I learned about practices that harm our environment and affect our treasured planet.

This is why I am committed to work with Nature’s Finest.  We make a difference in our community by providing excellent customer services and effective and safe pest management. We do this by having committed and well-trained staff who identify pests for treatment. I do my part by being up to date on new indoor pest control products, correctly identifying pest, and rotating products to prevent insect resistance to treatments. This not only gives us great results, but provides savings to the customer by doing the right things at the right time.  We don’t operate on a crisis management style but on a preventative focus giving you a healthy home, while putting less stress on the environment, protecting Mother Nature!

I make sure that you clearly know what we can do for you. I match your needs.

I have worked for several other pest control companies. I now choose to work with Nature‘s Finest because they are truly a “cut above” and I’ve seen it. They are Gentle on Mother Nature and tough on bugs.

As the Office Manager I enjoy assisting you with any Lawn Care or pest needs.   I make sure that each department receives and is fully responsive to customers directions and needs. Having worked with the public for many years I have as my motto ‘Be Courteous, Professional, and Helpful with a large dose of knowledge and common sense.” My motto is a perfect match with Nature’s Finest.

I look forward to speaking with you, by phone or e-mail.
