Our team
Liam Hoppe
Owner / Arborist
Liam grew up around the tree world and dove back in headfirst after returning to Ohio in 2024. Since then, he has been continuously educating himself and evolving Queen City Arborists into your go-to tree service provider.
Brent Weber
Project Manager / Operator / Arborist
Brent has been on this earth longer than most trees. With that—and his love for nature and the outdoors—his depth of knowledge across all areas of arboriculture is remarkable. We wouldn’t be here without him.
Jarrod Stevens
Climber / Crew lead
Jarrod is also known as “The Surgeon.” With years of crew management and tree climbing under his belt, his moves are precise and always calculated—whether moving through the tree or rigging out hazardous limbs.
Brayan Castanon
Groundman / Operator / Climber
Bryan is one of our stars. He shows up every day on time, eager to learn and expand his knowledge in arboriculture. You would struggle to find someone who works harder than Brayan. He will soon be our newest ISA Certified Arborist. We love watching him grow and truly value his presence on our team.
Taylor Hoppe
Groundman / Operator / Climber
Taylor spent the last 10 years out west surrounded by some of the biggest trees in the country. He has since returned to Cincinnati and now uses his work ethic and skills to assist Queen City Arborists in day-to-day operations. We’re excited to watch Taylor make a name for himself in the industry—his future is bright.
