MEET OUR CREW - DAVE HINES

He started his career at 14, working for his father's tree care business. Dave's dad is a certified arborist and, from him Dave learned all aspects of pruning, aboricare, and most of the valuable skills he now uses to diagnose and solve the plant and tree problems that are unique to Southern Nevada.

 His father is now the coordinator of maintenance for the City of Henderson, and Dave completed a challenging internship with the city in 2006. He hopes one day to also work in management at the City in the Parks Department. For the last four years Dave has been working part time with two Parks Department crew members, who on their off days, have a route servicing executive homes in the golf course communities of Anthem.

David is also an acomplised student and serious athlete, lettering each year of high school in soccer. Daves club level soccer team took the state title six years in a row, all while maintaining a 3.0 GPA. He's currently taking degree level classes at CSN pursuing his A.S. in Horticulture Practices and Management. Dave relaxes by practicing martial arts (Muy Thai), running, playing poker, and maintaining his personal fitness at a peak level.
