With 30 years as an ISA Board Certified Master Arborist and Utility Specialist, I bring a unique edge to aerial work — I don't just fly, I understand what I'm looking at. After earning my FAA Part 107 certification, I founded Focus 56 to combine deep tree and landscape expertise with professional drone services.

I specialize in projects where subject knowledge matters as much as piloting skill:

Aerial tree risk assessments — identifying hazards, deadwood, structural issues, and canopy health that a standard pilot might miss
Real estate photography — showcasing properties with cinematic aerial and ground-level content
Construction progress documentation — regular site captures that tell a build story over time
Environmental and land management — leveraging my arborist background for site surveys and vegetation mapping

I fly a DJI Air 3S and deliver polished, edited content using Apple Creator Studio. Whether you need a single inspection flight or ongoing project documentation, I bring professional-grade output with an expert's eye behind the lens.

Based in Lacey, WA available for projects throughout the area.
