"It’s like the concept of ‘right tree, right place.’ If you want to be planted in an environment that supports your growth and encourages you to reach your full potential, Davey’s the right place to set down your roots."
It’s difficult for Tina McKeand to contain her excitement and enthusiasm for her job.
An urban and community forestry specialist for Davey Resource Group’s Western region, McKeand loves working in the field and says she is inspired to make a positive difference in the industry and for the environment.
"It’s hard not to share my enthusiasm for trees and my belief that our species needs to reconnect with the natural environment," she says. "There are a lot of people in this industry who are just as passionate, and supporting each other and sharing ideas and knowledge is critical not only for our profession but for all life on our planet."
McKeand, who says she has found such support at Davey, developed the Tree Owner’s Workshop, which is now conducted in communities throughout Arizona to help consumers understand the importance of quality tree care and hiring certified arborists. She is proud to be part of Davey, which employs the best arborists in the industry.
"I’m inspired by the professionalism and enthusiasm of my teammates and managers as well as an environment that encourages every individual toward personal success," she says. "I’m also proud that Davey has such a positive global presence, providing support to others in our industry by contributing to research, sharing knowledge and sponsoring events that benefit trees and people everywhere."
