Daniel Bello
GROUNDHAND

Daniel didn’t plan on falling for tree care—it just kind of happened. What started as a random job in Texas quickly turned into a full-blown passion for arboriculture, nature, and the tight-knit camaraderie of the crew. Originally from Chico, California, Daniel made his way to St. Louis when his fiancée took a job here, and now he’s all in on growing his skills and experience in the industry. He loves seeing the transformation of a yard after a big removal or a much-needed pruning. When he’s not working, you’ll find him fishing, traveling, or hanging out with his fiancée and their pets. Fun fact: He used to be a yo-yo pro (yes, really) and has lived in five states—but St. Louis is where he’s putting down roots!
