Aaron joined the High Spirits Hospitality team as our Director of Operations in 2022. He brought with him a wealth of experience as a beverage wholesaler who even owned his own speakeasy/bar business from 2002-2008! He graduated from Colorado State Global University with a Bachelors of Science in Business Administration, and he also has a professional certification in Human Resources.

If you ask him where he grew up, Aaron will tell you he was born in Colorado, raised in Texas, and became an "adult" in the Carolinas. He has traveled all over the U.S. for 5 years as a professional athlete. Can you guess the sport? He currently lives on a farm where he enjoys talking to his bees and his chickens–especially his favorite, Ruth Bader Hens-Burg.
