## # I'm looking for employment as a sawyer/climber(trainee)in the downstate region of NY or north Jersey. I have just moved back to Orange county New York from Colorado. I love trees and I love being in the outdoors. I have experience with both government contracts/organizations as well as residential tree service companies # see-below. Everyone out east here is looking for a climber it seems, which is fine. I don't mind paying my dues. Either by paying for education including my 3'rd 4'th and fifth paycheck for classes or by an apprenticeship. ##

About me: I consider myself an extremely dedicated worker. I've worked many facets of the tree business but I don't carry an ego with me. I'm truly interested in being part of a professional crew that operates the right way and safely.#
