About Matthew Hokanson
I am an ecological professional and certified arborist with over twelve years of natural areas restoration and invasive species management experience within native landscaped areas, park districts, forest preserves, and high-quality remnant habitats. I work closely with rare, threatened, and endangered species for their conservation. This includes locating, identifying, monitoring, and propagating plant populations, as well as working with rare wildlife. In my previous role as a restoration technician/forester with the Forest Preserves of Cook County, I led and assisted with many forestry related projects requiring tree climbing, planting, pruning, maintenance, and removal. I am proficient with operating and maintaining chainsaws, wood chippers, and other heavy machinery. Through my professional endeavors I am trained and certified as a wildland firefighter and Prescribed Burn Manager through the National Wildfire Coordinating Group and Illinois Department of Natural Resources. I have ten years of experience performing and leading both prescribed burns and wildfire suppression in grassland, woodland, and wetland fuels. I also train and work with Forest Preserve staff, volunteers, and conservation corps members on prescribed burn procedures and techniques.Restoring habitat for wildlife and people and working to save rare and conservative plant species is a life-long passion of mine. I find joy in sharing my knowledge with others. As a volunteer leader with the Citizens for Conservation and Spring Creek Stewards, I supervise and help train fellow volunteers on various restoration techniques such as target herbicide application, mowing, planting, and native seed collection, preparation/cleaning, and distribution. Wilderness skills, first aid, and emergency/survival preparedness is another passion of mine. I have additional training and certification as a Wilderness First Responder and Swiftwater Rescue Technician.
Listed skills include Land Management, Wilderness First Responder, Automotive Mechanic, Resource Management, and 10 others.
