Welcome to the Colorado State Liaison Webpage for the Society of Municipal Arborists. Periodically check out our page for updates on what is going on throughout the state. Feel free to reach out to me anytime if you would like additional information.

I am the Urban & Community Forestry Program Manager for the Colorado State Forest Service, based out of Broomfield, CO. I love finding collaborative opportunities to make our communities thriving places for people and nature.
