Leadership – Maintenance

As Owner and CEO of ELS Maintenance, Inc., Ryan Pike leads the company with a hands-on approach, overseeing daily operations across maintenance, enhancements, and arbor services, while also guiding business development, marketing, and accounting strategies. His leadership reflects a lifelong commitment to the landscape and construction industries—an industry legacy he proudly carries on as the second generation at the helm of ELS, alongside his sister, Angel, since taking over the family business in January 2016.

Before joining ELS, Ryan worked with Wadsworth Golf Construction Company, where he helped shape the Forest Highlands Golf Course and Clubhouse in Flagstaff, AZ. Mentored by his father, Mike Pike, Ryan developed deep-rooted expertise in managing large-scale commercial and community landscapes throughout Arizona.

Ryan earned his Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management from Northern Arizona University and holds several professional certifications, including SLM (Sustainable Landscape Management), Smartscape, and OSHA 30-hour safety training.

When he’s not leading the team at ELS, Ryan enjoys spending time outdoors—hunting, fishing, and camping with his wife and three children.
