Shawn Bernick, COO, develops products and protocols that deliver predictable results for Rainbow and provides training and education so that other tree care professionals can do the same. Shawn grew up on a dairy farm in a small town called Spencer, WI. He enjoys mowing his lawn and growing vegetables in his garden; has shot deer, bear, wild turkey, squirrel, pheasant, grouse, ducks and geese; and met his wife on a blind date while in graduate school. Shawn’s favorite tree is a bur oak. In his free time, he likes the Packers and NFL football, watching and rooting for the Packers with his son Teddy, playing with his three kids, and being outside hunting, fishing, ice fishing, and growing things (trees, shrubs, perennials, vegetables, etc). His idea of an interesting dinner party would be with: Willie Nelson, Abraham Lincoln, and Albert Einstein.
