Garrett Matthews

Hey guys! My name is Garret. I was born and raised in Shreveport and live here with my three children, Gunner, Gage, and Georgia Claire. I started my career working for the Shreveport Fire Department and took horticulture classes on the side. This is where Matthews Landscape started as a side business to support my family and fund a hunting habit! After 11 years on the fire department, I left to focus on the landscape business full-time. Customer service has always and will always be my main concern.

Kayla Ford Whittington

My name is Kayla and I am the Business Manager at Matthews. I am a data-driven person who has the benefit of working on account reconciliations, budgeting, leading the finance team, and doing my part in creating sustainable, long-term growth. I am thankful to work with a team that is so dedicated to our clients’ happiness while still focusing on the fun. While away from the business, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, traveling, and crocheting. 

Jesse Anderson

Hey there! I'm Jesse Anderson, General Manager here at Matthews Landscape & Pest. Teamwork is at the heart of everything I do, which is exactly what drew me to Matthews Landscape. After stepping away from the landscape industry for a while, I'm thrilled to be back in an environment where I can put my skills to work alongside a great team. Outside of the office, you'll find me spending time with my wife, Deanna, and our daughter, Darcy Ann— they're my "why," and everything I do, I do for them.

 

 

Michael Procell

My name is Michael, after working in different fields I always seem to keep coming back to marketing. Matthews Landscape not only offers creative and professional solutions but also lives in the creativity of what marketing has to offer. I’m happy to continue my creative growth with Matthews but mostly irritate my coworkers to be in content with me!

 

Ashley Pitre

Hey guys! My name is Ashley and I have worked for Matthews since 2015. In the past, I worked at various restaurants and other customer service positions but now beautiful lawns and landscapes are my passion! I’m a bit of a jack of all trades around here. I’ve held positions in the field, office, dispatch, and billing. I knew nothing about green grass or plants nor did I care but that has all changed since working here! I am married to Seth and have two beautiful daughters, who are my reason for everything!

Abigail Colvin

Jake Keener

Hey yall, I’m Jake! I came to Matthews to continue my career of making people happy and don’t think I could have chosen a better place. I have a GREAT wife and three kids who my world revolves around. Landscaping has been my pride and joy my entire life. I helped my dad when I was a kid mowing grass and my momma and granny gave me my green thumb for plants. But in the end for me, it’s just about treating the customer with kindness they’ve never received and leaving them with the best looking house in the neighborhood!
