Jose is a longtime member of the Urban Desert Team and friend of the family. At 16-years-old he started working for us as a babysitter. We can attest that he is patient as the day is long. Jose will impress you with his knowledge, cheerful countenance and winning smile. Also, he is a HUGE Raiders fan! Please do what you can to overlook this flaw. (Go Cowboys!)

Bob is a master at making people smile and is truly happiest when he can be of service to others. He strongly believes in 100% customer service 100% of the time. Bob’s personal motto is “If you’ve got bugs under your rugs, I want to treat ‘em like thugs and kill the filthy bugs!” He is more powerful than Spiderman, and better lookin’ too!

After an epic search in pursuit of the perfect addition to our team, we happened upon Jack Loss and recruited (some may say poached) him from another local company. Jack has over 15 years in the service industry specializing in Business Management and Operations. This experience is evident in the professionalism and attention to detail he brings to each service. He is married to our amazing sales specialist Amber and has two wonderful children. In his spare time, he enjoys cooking, time with family, and memorizing random movie quotes.

Dax is an important part of our UDP termite crew. He is the 2nd son to owner Brad and within a minute of meeting him, you won’t doubt it! A chip off the old block, Dax is a natural people person and has the superpower of making people from all walks of life feel happy and at ease. He has a very big heart and is well known for his random acts of kindness. Every day he shows he really cares about this company and its customers as he consistently makes the effort to go above and beyond what people expect.

Danny is a key member of our successful rodent division. He is owner Brad’s middle child and the easiest son/employee anyone could ask for! Along with a contagious smile and laugh, he was also born with a natural knack for fixing things. Although he is our youngest team member he draws off of a lifetime of experience working side by side with his dad. And to steal a line from Dirty Dancing “No one puts Danny in the corner!”

Julian is part of our hardworking termite crew. In his 2 years as a licensed technician, he has gained extensive knowledge in both termite and general pest control. His flexible skill set means that he can take care of all your pest needs in one stop. In his time off the clock, Julian has his hands full with his cute little boy. When he does find a spare moment he enjoys working out and off-roading, with his own car, not ours, we hope!

Trista is wife, bookkeeper, marketing coordinator, business consultant, personal assistant and answering service to Brad (UDP owner). She also heads up the UDP tech support division which mainly consists of turning on and off technology devices when they don’t work properly and then getting credit when it works. Her favorite part of the job is finding fun ways to post on Social Media and playing with photo editing apps. When she is not working, or taking care of her family she enjoys nerding out with a good sudoku puzzle or documentary.

One thing we can assure all of our customers is that when Gina Valenzuela is on the job, the job is done quickly and it’s done right! When Gina is not running the office she continues to be amazing on campus as a college honors student studying Human Resources. Gina has a long history working in the pest control industry and does not like bugs! She understands the urgency of getting the technicians out ASAP to get your home protected. Gina’s favorite thing to do when she is not at work or school is to spend time with her amazing little girl!

Valeri is what we in the biz refer to as “a great catch”. A college grad, with many talents, we are lucky to Have her on our team. Valeri came to Phoenix about a decade ago after enduring “enough midwestern winters to last a lifetime!” She must still have a little Minnesota ice left in her veins as she is one of the only people, perhaps in the universe, who claims no fear of scorpions. When Valeri isn’t crunching numbers at UDP she can be found hiking with her family or enjoying one of her favorite TV shows.

Emily became part of our wonderful UDP team at the Arrowhead Mall. Yep, that’s not a typo, we first met her at the food court in the mall! We knew right away, amidst the fast food and chaos, that she was a keeper. She is currently our Jedi master of scheduling and is on the front lines of making sure no customer is left behind. If you’ve had the pleasure of talking with Emily you know that her quick wit and charm make her fun to chat with and a big asset to our company. Emily was born and raised in Phoenix and loves being with her family and her dog Sophia.

Kayla is our newest Urban Desert Pest Control acquisition. We were lucky enough to steal her from a management position at Cyclebar to be our office sales guru. You’ll never have a negative experience with Kayla. She is always happy and helpful. She has even been able to have fun while dealing with our demon-possessed office printer (Patent pending on her printer dance). Her favorite things, besides work at UDP, are her fiancé Jynx, her dog Marin, a good work out and vacations to Rocky Point. Side note, she has been a licensed hairstylist for 5 years so if you need any hairdo tips while talking pest control, she is your go to!

Brad has over two decades of experience building successful pest control companies. He is detail-oriented and isn’t satisfied until the customer is 100% happy. Brad is known for his quick wit, positive nature and thorough knowledge of two major subjects: pest control & football (Go Cowboys!). Brad and his wife, Trista, have five kids so he understands every dollar counts. Your home and family are his top priority.

He is our organization guru—just ask for a tour of his truck! He is fluent in Spanish and a great communicator overall. Jeremy’s career started in television, and you can see that he’s a natural on the news! Jeremy finds great joy in getting to know people. He shows his appreciation for each of our customers by focusing on superior service and getting results. He loves the AZ heat (yes, he actually said this) and is in awe by all the beauty the Phoenix Valley has to offer.
