Two Tree Guys Phil Rogacki & Jared Abrojena

After retiring from his military and firefighting careers Zach started exploring tree work. He quickly realized how much he had to learn and started searching for training resources. After a climbing injury he became determined to teach aerial rescue to other climbers and rescue personnel.

Mark Chisholm, Brian Noyes, and Robert Phillips stop by the studio while on their west coast pruning tour to chop it up with Jared.

Justin started climbing with his grandpa who worked in line clearance. Most of his family has worked in trees, including his grandma that drug brush! He started  running crews at 22 years old and has now been with Monster Tree Service for 3 years.

Sara joins us at the grand opening of The Academy 2 in Loveland Colorado to tell us how she came to work for Pro Lift Crain and Rigging.
