Jamie Jones -
Hired by TreeLink in July of 2007, my background is in Business Administration and Marketing. Before moving to Salt Lake City, I lived in Steamboat Springs, CO. There, I was fortunate to have been involved with the start up of a successful architecture firm (Vertical Arts), helping it grow from the ground up as the Business Manager. With my active personality and love for nature, TreeLink has been a natural fit. The energy in the office is great, the potential limitless, and the cause is unbeatable.
Job Description: Operations Manager, project coordination, administration, marketing outreach, & new project development. |

Dave Wham - I have been fortunate to work on
a number of interesting jobs in natural resources for the past 20
years. I received a B.S. in Forestry in 1981 and a M.S. in Watershed
Management from Utah State University in 1983. Since 1988, I have
worked on a variety of lake and river projects as a scientist and
watershed coordinator for the Utah Division of Water Quality. My interest
with the Internet began around 1994 when I first figured out how to
put some water quality information onto web pages for the then fledgling
World Wide Web. I have been with TreeLink since 2000. It has been
a pleasure to work on such a worthwhile cause with such a talented
and energetic group of people. I love all kinds of trees, being especially
partial to limber pines, sub-alpine firs and eastern bur oaks. I have
also grown especially fond of large, gnarly old Freemont cottonwoods
under which I can often be found shading up with a cold one during
trips down the desert rivers of the west. |

Tarabochia - I have been developing web sites since 1992. I started in
a student lab while attending the University of Idaho. My studies granted me
various opportunities to study architecture, art, landscaping, horticulture,
education and business. Afer receiving my
Bachelor's in Business Education I went on to develop enterprise web
applications for the Unversity of Utah. Recently, I was a Business Systems
Architect for EMC2 Corporation. I have been with TreeLink since 1998. This has been a
great opportunity to bring the technical and web world into the area
of UC&F. I enjoy taking the complexity out of the web and ecommerce and
applying it to the TreeLink site.
Job Description: Technical lead, developer, planning and system administration. |
