The four-legged quality-control team.
AE Outdoor Living is a family-owned company — and that family includes two very opinionated dogs. They greet every visitor, supervise every coffee break, and have very strong feelings about freshly installed turf.
Stella Bell
Responsible for team motivation, office greetings, and snack inspections. If you've ever been on a sales call with David and heard a tiny dramatic sigh in the background — that was Stella, reminding everyone she hasn't been petted in at least four minutes.
- Specialty: Lifting team morale one head tilt at a time.
- Signature move: Strategic snack supervision during lunch.
- Breed: Yorkshire Terrier · 100% heart, 5% body weight.
Skylar Bell
Oversees comfort testing, backyard inspections, and final approval of all relaxation areas. If a patch of turf doesn't pass the official belly-flop test, it doesn't pass at all.
- Specialty: Certified comfort testing on every turf install.
- Signature move: The judgmental side-eye when grout lines are uneven.
- Breed: French Bulldog · merle coat, one blue eye, zero patience.
Because we're a family-owned company — and they're family.
The serious work — the ROC-licensed pool builds, the engineered paver bases, the warranty calls answered at year seven — that all lives on the rest of the site. This page exists because Stella and Skylar are part of the AE office every day, and pretending otherwise wouldn't be honest.
