I’m regarded as one of the world’s top Master Chainsaw Sculptors. For more than a decade, I’ve been commissioned to create large-scale sculptures for celebrities, corporations, foreign royalty, the military, cities, towns, universities, rock stars, art collectors and so much more. I've been awarded honors by both the State Senate and The House Of Representatives of Massachusetts. On the internet, my work has gone viral several times over, viewed by millions and a top trend on Twitter.

I'm in a book called, 101 Baseball Places to See Before You Strike Out, I've been in magazines such as Wood Magazine, Boston Magazine, Boston Parents and Patterson Today. I’ve also appeared on national television shows namely America’s Got Talent on NBC, The Soup on E! and The Family Chops on Hulu. Plus, I've starred in commercials for companies such as Carhartt, ’47 Brand, Boch Enterprises and others. (See my PRESS + APPEARANCES page for links and more.)

For 3 years I toured with the largest outdoor power products company on Planet Earth, Husqvarna as their live event feature doing carving shows. Including performing at The Charlotte Motor Speedway, The TORC Off Road Championships, The Green Industries Plus Expo and dealerships around the U.S. In 2014, they even named me; The Official Chainsaw Sculptor of Husqvarna USA, the only person to ever hold that honor.
*Frontman for the popular Boston rock band, FEVAH DREAM
aka: Earth's Greatest Cover Band
Proudly now in our 17th year as one of Boston's most in-demand cover bands. We've played everywhere, man and we will – we will – ROCK YOU.
*National MC/ Showrunner for The Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show
For 7 years I toured all over The United States, making headlines and playing to crowds of thousands. (Yes, I was one of the guys who threw the ax!)

Ok, so what is
CHAINSAWS, CHEESEBURGERS AND ROCK N' ROLL?
IT'S LIKE NOTHING YOU'VE EVER SEEN BEFORE...
A fun, funny, fast-paced, multi-media slide show with live narration, all about the power of perseverance, courage and determination. You'll laugh, you'll think, you'll be blown away.
A message to motivate audiences of all ages to reach for their HIGHEST potential!
With a mixture of seriousness and comedy, I'll tell my story by highlighting some of my most poignant struggles, setbacks, successes and priceless lessons learned along the way. Visually, you'll be treated to a rush of familiar pop-culture and wicked (as we say in Massachusetts) cool imagery.
Proven to grab and hold the attention of even the hardest-to-reach students.
The whole goal is to help inspire and motivate people to passionately chase their dreams, no matter what they might be. ESPECIALLY those who most need a reason to believe that anything is possible!
I will guide students and participants through a meaningful activity of self-reflection and goal setting to encourage visualizing, chasing and ACHIEVING their dreams.
K-12, COLLEGE, EVENTS, CORPORATE,
CUSTOMIZABLE SHOWS!
Whether you're 5 or 105, you'll love this highly unique, motivational thrill-ride!

Hull High School seniors were fortunate to hear Jesse’s message about setting goals, reaching your dreams, and using failure as a platform for success. Not only was Jesse’s upbeat presentation engaging, it fit in perfectly on our seniors’ last day of school. Jesse boasted a refreshing style that even our superintendent emulated the following year on teacher back-to-school day. Ultimately, “The Machine” Jesse Green’s advice for living a happier life resonates with people of all ages and we look forward to hearing from him again!

I haven't seen a group of fifth graders so engaged by a speaker in a long time! "The Machine" Jesse Green's presentation was the perfect combination of funny and serious. The overarching message - you can do anything you set your mind to - left our students (and faculty!) feeling truly inspired.

Hi Jesse,
On behalf of the 5th grade team, thanks so much for coming to Mayo Elementary this past Friday. Our students thoroughly enjoyed your engaging stories that documented your journey toward fame as a Chainsaw Wood Sculptor. Your energy and enthusiasm were infectious! Your message---to follow your dreams no matter how hard---was powerful and inspiring, and one that our students will carry with them for years to come. Thanks so much for sharing your tales and for inspiring a new generation to reach for the stars.
Best Wishes,

"The Machine" Jesse Green's entertaining presentation and wonderful personality had my son, his classmates, and all the teachers completely enthralled. More importantly, Jesse's message is _exactly_ what our children and youth need to hear -- that by combining goals with planning and perseverance, you can overcome obstacles and accomplish your dreams.
