SCOTT MCCROAN

Cross Creek,FL

Summary

I am a hard worker. Detailing is just as important as the regular work in my opinion. Many hours on weed eaters, edgers, hedgers, zero turns, push mowers and Pole saws. Hundreds of hours supervising crews using such equipment. Multiple irrigation diagnosis's and repairs. Fifteen years of uninterupted experience. I am going to take online classes at St. Leo college for Psychology (mainly because I find it fascinating). Customer service is a skill I pride in myself. All I need to do is walk a property before hand and I automatically know what needs to be done. Landscape Supervisor with [Number] years of experience designing eye-catching lawns and delivering customer satisfaction by managing landscape and design teams, overseeing chemical application procedures and negotiating design contracts. Skilled in consulting with customers, managing work timelines and implementing lawn maintenance techniques.
