Our Team

I founded Lake Savers in 2007. After watching my own lake deteriorate due to Eurasian Water Milfoil and a failed multi-year herbicide program, I was determined to find a better way. Not satisfied with the lack of answers coming from the “Lake Management” industry, I began an intensive search for natural technologies that work and a determination to save lakes, whatever it takes.

I came to the realization that conventional approaches to lake management including herbicides, harvesting and dredging are not sustainable and can even be detrimental to the long-term health and recreational quality of a lake.

Prior to forming Lake Savers, I was a Senior Leadership Consultant to Fortune 500 Companies and equity owner of Leap Technologies, Inc. This experience has proven to be invaluable in quickly establishing Lake Savers as a leader in the field of Lake Restoration with an unmatched reputation for customer focus. I was born and raised in Middletown, Connecticut and graduated from Amherst College with a BA in Geology.

As Director, Jayme has led Tree Savers to tremendous growth and operational excellence running one of the most innovative Hemlock Biological Control Laboratories in the country. Her management and leadership skills led to her promotion to Director of the EverBlue Northeast Region in 2017.

In her spare time Jayme likes to combine science and artistry to craft healing gemstone jewelry. She can be found at local holiday fairs or on her Etsy seller’s webpage.

Though Amanda has worked in a variety of positions in the field of aquatic biology, her primary interest is how human interactions with the environment affect aquatic ecosystems. Her research has taken her from Gloucester MA to the Bahamas to Esther Island Alaska where she was a fisheries technician for the propagation of salmon. In Richmond VA she worked as a consultant on the study of impingement and entrainment of power plants.

In 2007, Amanda returned to her home state of Pennsylvania and became an aquatic biologist for Ecoscientific Solutions LLC which was purchased in 2009 by Lake Savers, LLC. A majority of her work involves water testing, macrophyte and phytoplankton analysis, determining how human activities have affected a waterway, and then working with clients to convert that knowledge into an integrated management plan for the lake or water body.

Upon purchasing Ecoscientific Solutions and assessing Amanda’s capabilities and performance, John Tucci quickly promoted Amanda to Director of Lake Sciences for EverBlue Lakes.

Richard joined the Lake Savers team in 2009 to help analyze, install, and manage one of the first subsurface aeration systems of its kind in the state of Florida and since then has worked with the company on many of its large installations around the country. As a Florida resident for almost 20 years, he has witnessed first-hand the adverse effects that nutrient loading has had on Florida’s water bodies and decided to work to make a difference.

As head of research and development for Lake Savers, my job is to relentlessly pursue the world’s most effective all-natural technologies that restore lake health. I have been actively involved in seeking the most prudent and effective ways for restoring water-bodies from man-made degradation, for nearly 30 years.

When not working on lakes, you can usually find him hunting or fishing or dreaming about hunting and fishing. In fact, fish tremble when Fred steps into a boat…
