.. Hello again. I'm Paul DiMieri, born in '74,
and I live and work in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
I enjoy life here because of the outstanding growing urban culture mixed with the beautifully forested, mountainous topography. I have found a multitude of creative arts and venues; all the while, enjoying the many activities that are available with the numerous city and state parks. Related to this coupling of creative and outdoor acivities, I have followed two separate career paths that seem to mesh well together.
Graphic Design and Professional Tree Climbing.
I've been working as a graphic designer since the mid '90's. I spent roughly a decade as an in-house Senior Designer, leading teams for large corporations and twenty years now working as a part-time freelance Graphic Designer while pursuing my other passion.
A little over 10 years ago, I stumbled into a new career. With a mix of art, science, fitness and extreme adventure I became hooked on being a Professional Tree Climber. Since then I have studied and worked on mastering the science and art of Tree Pruning and Tree Removal.
