Hi my name is Josh Behounek and my technical title is Business Development Manager for the Davey Resource Group’s Environmental Consulting division, although sometimes I prefer Theoretical Arborist or even Futurist Arborist. I’ve worked for Davey for over 20 years and currently focus on providing innovative and technical solutions for communities, nonprofits, commercial clients, and state agencies throughout the US & Internationally to proactively and sustainably manage their trees and other natural resources. I’ve worked as a traveling inventory arborist, climbing arborist, Adjunct Professor, and have held numerous volunteer positions in local, regional, state and national non-profit organizations.
I graduated from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale with a Bachelor’s in Forestry Resource Management am a Certified Arborist Municipal Specialist with the Tree Risk Assessment Qualification, a graduate of the Society of Municipal Arborist’s Municipal Forester Institute, and have hugged dozens of national champion trees.
