Meet the Team

Michael Ledet

Founder & CEO
Meet Michael, the driving force behind Elite Landscaping & Sprinkler Repair. With four decades in Arizona landscaping, Michael possesses an unparalleled depth of knowledge, allowing him to offer exceptional service and expertise to his clients.
Originally from Smithtown, New York, Michael demonstrated his strong entrepreneurial spirit early by moving to Arizona at just 18 years old in 1977. He put himself through college, earning a B.S. in Business Management from Arizona State University while gaining hands-on experience in the landscaping industry, working for a friend's company. This experience fueled his passion and vision, leading him to establish Elite Landscaping & Sprinkler Repair at 24 years of age.
Michael's four decades in Arizona landscaping offer a rare perspective: he's not just witnessed the industry's evolution, he's been a part of it. This has allowed him to forge deep, lasting relationships with many now-prominent businesses, a bond strengthened by remembering their shared humble beginnings. This allows him to provide unparalleled service and expertise to his clients, cementing his reputation as a trusted and respected figure in the Arizona landscaping community. He's dedicated to bringing clients' outdoor visions to life with the highest quality results.
Outside of work, Mike is a passionate car enthusiast, regularly attending Barrett-Jackson and other automotive events. He also enjoys live music, particularly rock concerts. His commitment to his profession extends beyond his daily work; as an Arizona Certified Landscape Professional (ACLP), he's an active member of the Arizona Landscape Contractors Association (ALCA), where he values the ongoing education and the strong relationships he's built within the landscaping community.

Michele Ledet
CFO & Co-Owner
Meet Michele, CFO and Co-Owner of Elite Landscaping & Sprinkler Repair. Michele leverages her vast expertise in accounting, customer follow-up, and invoicing to drive the company's success. Her extensive background has shaped her into a strategic and detail-oriented leader.
Growing up in Medford Lakes, New Jersey, she developed an entrepreneurial spirit working at her dad's business, Genie House Lighting. In 1982, she made a bold decision to leave the Northeast, trading the cold winters of New Jersey for the sun-kissed deserts of Arizona. This move to Arizona further invigorated her entrepreneurial spirit, leading to the creation of Moonlighting Inc. and — 16 years later — Moon Light Marketing & Associates LLC, showcasing her adaptability and determination. She has also been a successful real estate agent for the past 24 years. Throughout her career, Michele has been a dedicated member of the American Lighting Association, actively contributing to the organization for many years.
Her years of experience in the Arizona business landscape give her a unique perspective on serving our clients. A born entrepreneur, Michele brings a unique combination of financial acumen and business savvy to her role, ensuring the company's continued growth and success through her meticulous attention to detail and expertise in accounting, customer follow-up, and invoicing. She prides herself on providing personalized customer service, ensuring clear communication and accurate invoicing.
Outside of work, Michele cherishes time spent with her son and daughter, enjoys traveling, lovingly cares for her pets (two dogs and a cat), and unwinds by catching up on her favorite shows.
