Joseph Maska

I.S.A. Certified Arborist (PD-3031A) with over two decades immersed in the tree care industry, transitioning from hands-on expertise to client-focused sales and project management. My career began immediately after high school, where I cultivated a deep understanding of all facets of arboriculture – from safely operating heavy equipment and performing intricate climbing techniques to supervising crews and ensuring efficient job site management. This extensive field experience provides a unique lens for understanding project needs and potential challenges.

> At Strobert Tree Services, I leveraged this technical foundation to excel in sales, delivering tailored vegetation management solutions for a diverse portfolio of public and commercial clients. This included successfully securing and managing subcontracted projects such as DelDOT’s Old Orchard Road Expansion (vegetation removal with Century Engineering), Eastern Shore Natural Gas Felton Loop (pipeline vegetation management with Voshell Brothers Welding), and Lamar Advertising’s billboard vegetation management program along DelDOT rights-of-way. These roles demanded accurate estimation, clear proposal generation (utilizing software like Arbor Gold), and strong client relationship management.

I am adept at hazard assessment, species identification, and implementing effective plant healthcare strategies. Passionate about delivering quality work and building lasting client relationships, I am eager to continue growing in tree care or sales roles where my comprehensive experience and dedication to excellence can contribute to success.
