Tiger Devine
Founder & Lead Arborist
Tiger has been working in arboriculture since 2004, beginning his career in Byron Bay, Australia. Over the years, his passion for tree care has taken him across the globe — from England to Canada — where he now leads Devine Arboricultural Solutions based in East Vancouver.
As a seasoned climbing arborist, consultant, trainer, and R&D specialist, Tiger holds a broad range of local and international qualifications, including ISA Certification, TRAQ, Tree Appraisal, and Wildlife & Danger Tree Assessment. His extensive knowledge and experience allow him to approach each project with both technical precision and ecological awareness.
Tiger is also a dedicated member of the PNWISA (Pacific Northwest Chapter of the ISA), regularly participating in climbing competitions, facilitating training programs, and mentoring fellow arborists. His commitment to advancing the industry is matched only by his care for the trees and communities he serves.
Outside of work, you’ll likely find Tiger exploring the outdoors with his partner and daughter, fishing, hiking, or hunting for some of BC’s most majestic big trees. His leadership, depth of knowledge, and love for the natural world are at the heart of everything we do at Devine.
