Hi, I'm Liam Scott. I'm a dedicated arborist with four years of forestry and silviculture experience, including vegetation clearance contracts and domestic arboriculture in New Zealand. I pride myself on safe, efficient work and clear communication with crews and clients. I earned a BA in English Literature and Creative Writing from Open University UK, completed remotely while I was in full-time employment. I'm an enthusiastic endurance athlete and rugby player, and I enjoy translating technical details into accessible, well-written updates and reports for teams and stakeholders.
