Carolina Tree Care has welcomed another arborist to its ranks: John Maurice! John comes to us with 22 years of experience and a passion for the green industry that runs deep. Get to know him a little better below!
John Maurice discovered his love of tree care as a student at Central Piedmont Community College. He was working toward his horticulture technology degree (which he went on to earn in 2004), when an influential professor steered him toward arboriculture. An internship at the Bartlett Research Lab gave him greater insight into the world of tree care and stoked his passion for trees and his appreciation of them as living organisms that we couldn't live without. He knew he wanted to spread the knowledge he'd gained far and wide, and becoming an arborist representative was the way to do it.
John became an ISA-Certified Arborist in 2005 and went on to earn the title of ISA Board Certified Master Arborist in 2012. He's also ISA TRAQ qualified, meaning he has specialized knowledge in tree risk assessment.
John has a strong background in plant health care and understands the importance of maintaining the health and vitality of Charlotte’s tree canopy. Through his studies and practical field experience, John has developed the skills to diagnose and treat issues such as pest infestations, diseases, and nutrient deficiencies. He understands the ever-changing nature of trees and pays close attention to how trees transform through the seasons and over time.
John has been an arborist representative in the Charlotte, NC area for 14 years. He'll be covering the greater Charlotte area here at Carolina Tree Care, including Huntersville, Davidson, Cornelius, and other locations in the Lake Norman area.
In all his years in the industry, John's favorite part of his job is still just talking to clients about their trees and sharing his knowledge. The impact he can have on his client's lives through conversation, and the impact they can have on him, is something he truly values. John also enjoys sharing his theoretical and practical experience with up-and-coming arborists.
Outside of the world of tree care, you’ll find John spending time with his wife and daughter.
Whether you’re dealing with a hazard tree or a sick one, John can help. Click here to request a consultation with him today!
