Their generosity and kindness have always stood out to me and genuinely comes across in everything that they do. Whatever incarnation my own work has taken, I’ve always felt welcomed and supported by the Aje family, and being a part of the AJE ATHLETICA Collective feels like an extension of that same goodness."
