The Team
We’re comprised of industry professionals who are ready to serve you!
Tommy has worked in the landscape construction world since he was eligible for a work permit at the age of 15 in Clarksville, Maryland. By age 18, Tommy was operating his own business performing landscape & hardscape projects in excess of $50k for homeowners & HOAs throughout the Baltimore-DC metro area. In 2007 Tommy relocated to Austin, TX where he worked as a top account manager for a national re-wholesale nursery, and then as Senior Estimator for a L&L Top 100 Landscape Construction & Maintenance Firm.
During his role as Senior Estimator, the seed for Takeoff Monkey was planted. Years of living the chaotic & stressful pre-construction life – Tommy knew there was a faster, easier way. In 2017, Tommy relocated to Winston-Salem, North Carolina to be closer to his family. Initially working for a couple of local construction contractors, the basis for Takeoff Monkey was further validated. Fast-forward to 2019, Takeoff Monkey was founded.
If you ask – Tommy will tell you that his passion for the industry lies in its people. Working as Founder & CEO of Takeoff Monkey affords Tommy the opportunity to meet and interact with hundreds of contractors throughout the country – and he couldn’t be happier! In his spare time, you can find Tommy in a kayak on a lake, or occasionally in a tree stand. Tommy enjoys spicy food, sour gummy worms, super early mornings, and animals.

Leah started her career in 2019 in a large landscaping and maintenance firm in Charlotte, NC as an estimator. Then, for a short time, she worked as an account manager for a nationwide commercial HVAC company, building experience working in a customer-focused role, then made the switch back to landscape estimating.
A few skills that Leah brings to the team are her love of learning, flexibility, and customer service. Leah is passionate about working with each customer to achieve higher levels of success.
Her experience in subcontractor estimating taught her how important speed and accuracy are to the function of the company as a whole.
