Our Forestry Technician, Jessica, graduated from Clemson University in December of 2021. She now assists with all aspects of our forestry division including prescribed burning, timber sales, and pollinator field plantings. Jessica manages our herbicide division, and is certified for forestry and aquatic herbicide applications. Jessica also assists our environmental division by performing stormwater pollution prevention inspections at several construction sites in the area.

Jessica decided to study forestry thanks to her dad, who owns and manages a timber farm in Edgefield, South Carolina. Some of her favorite memories growing up are visiting logging sites and prescribed burns on the property with her dad. Since joining our team, Jessica has moved to James Island, SC and spends her free time surfing at Folly Beach and taking naps with her dog, Layla.
