Mark Spitulski, owner of MKS Arborist Services, was born and raised in Erie, Pennsylvania. Following his graduation from McDowell High School, Mark earned a degree in Forestry from Paul Smith’s College, The College of the Adirondacks. Mark then began a sixteen year career with Asbury Woods in Erie, PA where he assisted in writing a Forest Management Plan for the organization’s 50-acre wooded property. In 2005, Mark helped to transform the property into the community treasure that it is today by overseeing the targeted removal of diseased, hazardous, and invasive trees and the selection and planting of over 250 native plants across the vast property. Continuing his education, Mark earned the Certified Arborist credential from the International Society of Arboriculture in 2008 and established MKS Arborist Services later that year. Mark has a passion for arboriculture science and continues to pursue further educational opportunities. In March 2020, Mark earned the ISA Tree Risk Assessment Qualification (TRAQ). The TRAQ qualification is a rigorous education program with an accompanying field and written test that ensures that an arborist adheres to a standardized, systematic process for assessing tree risk and providing information to property owners and risk managers, allowing them to make informed decisions that will promote the safety of people and property and enhance tree benefits, health, and longevity. Mark is one of only a handful of tree professionals in Northwestern PA to successfully earn this qualification. MKS Arborist Services is fully insured and holds all appropriate licenses for the many arboriculture and related services offered.
