About Ashley

Ashley previously managed a tree farm for five years building a strong foundation in tree care and sustainable growth practices. A year ago driven by her desire to work with trees in their permanent homes - mature, majestic, and in the relationship with life around them she shifted to pursue arboriculture in a new way. Around the same time she also took a tree climbing course and quickly became capitvated by life in the canopy and the possibility of climbing trees for a living, She is passionate about tree care, climbing, continious learning, and helping others connect more meaningfully with trees.
