WASHINGTON – Phillip Moore of TruTech Wildlife Services was presented with The David Cooksey PestVet of the Year Award at NPMA Legislative Day on Monday.
Moore made deployments to Iraq from 2004 to 2010. He then attended Parkland College, where he focused on the field of fine art. Despite being colorblind he has become an accomplished artist whose work has been displayed at the North Port Art Center.
FMC’s Tom Wharton presented the award to Moore, saying, “Sergeant Moore is courageous enough to paint what he sees, not what he thinks the rest of us see. Through art, the healing process began. He has made it a mission to help others heal for the medium of art therapy."
Wharton added, “TruTech Wildlife is lucky to have someone who brings this level of knowledge, experience and passion each and every day to the job.”
