Biography:
I am a proud member of the Society of Municipal Arborists, a 2012 graduate of the Municipal Forestry Institute (MFI), and a certified arborist for nearly eight years. I am so excited for the opportunity to serve as your SMA Texas State Liaison. A Parks & Recreational professional for over twenty-two years, I currently am the Parks Superintendent for the City of Duncanville, TX. In this position, I serve as the municipal arborist and oversee the arboriculture work performed by the city’s contractors and city staff. I also serve on the Keep Texas Beautiful Board of Directors and strongly believe that our urban forest is critical in creating a greener, cleaner, and cooler urban environment with benefits to all.
