Mission/Vision   

To provide the highest quality, full service forest management advise available, and to oversee the operations until accomplished, through responsibility, integrity, and the best workmanship possible. 

Your goals and interest are my priority, because I represent you.   After determining your goals and objectives I do a reconnaissance of the land and give you various management alternatives.  This first meeting and advise is free

I take great pride in helping landowners reach their goals, whether it's increasing the growth/yield of your timber, wildlife habitat improvement, or the improvement or maintenance of the aesthetic beauty of your land.   

My desire is to:

  • assist you with making complex forest management decisions

  • save you time, while making you more money

  • provide the very best quality forestry consulting service available

  • help landowners carry out their forest management decisions

SPECIAL NOTE:  Due to Hurricane Katrina, I advise all timberland owners to thoroughly examine their forest.  The structure of your forestland has probably been greatly altered, so you need to consider various management scenarios that will achieve your long term management objectives.  Now is the time to make these important decisions because special cost share funds are available to help you reestablish stands of timber that were destroyed or severely damaged.  These funds will only be available until the money runs out.
