Meet Our Team

Allison is thrilled to be working alongside her husband and co-owner, Gordon to bring great tree care to the Phoenix Area.  Her “day job” is teaching middle school science, but when not at school, she is the Monster Tree Office Manager.

Gordon is the Owner/Operator of Monster Tree.  He comes from a military family and spent 8 years in the US Air Force.  After years of Government Contract work across the US and in Australia, he decided it was time to settle down and pursue his dream of owning his own business.  After researching many franchise opportunities, he and his wife, Allison are very excited to be be the first Monster Tree Franchise in Arizona.  He is looking forward to providing excellent tree and plant healthcare to the greater Phoenix Area.

I’m a certified arborist with over 12 years of experience in the tree care industry, and I’ve had the privilege of working across various aspects of arboriculture, from tree health care and pruning to complex removals and plant care programs. Since joining Monster Tree Service of the West Valley in May 2024, I’ve been focused on delivering exceptional service to our clients, ensuring their trees and landscapes are healthy, safe, and beautiful.

My approach is rooted in a commitment to professionalism and safety, following industry standards like ANSI A300 and Z133. I’m passionate about helping homeowners and businesses make informed decisions about their trees, providing honest consultations, and managing projects with attention to detail. I love being part of a team that values quality and client satisfaction, and I strive to make sure every job is done right the first time.

With a background in tree care management, business development, and field supervision, I’m confident in my ability to handle everything from routine pruning to large-scale removals. I also keep up with industry best practices as a TCIA Certified Tree Care Safety Specialist and Plant Health Care Technician.

Outside of work, I’m always looking for ways to continue learning and growing in this field so I can better serve my clients.
