About Aaron

A man in a blue shirt standing inside a warehouse or storage facility with shelves of wine barrels in the background.

I’m Aaron, a strategic sustainability leader passionate about turning big environmental goals into practical, measurable results. For over a decade, I’ve specialized in wine industry sustainability—helping wineries and beverage brands embrace decarbonization, clean energy, water stewardship, regenerative farming, and efficiency as drivers of innovation and growth.

Beyond wine, I’ve partnered with beverage companies, tech firms, and custom projects to design solutions that meet unique sustainability challenges. My work spans governance, manufacturing efficiency, and even integrating sustainability into sales strategies—because real impact happens when sustainability is woven into every part of the business.

I’ve served on boards including The Climate Center, California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance, and International Wineries for Climate Action. With an MS in Sustainability Management from Kogod School of Business and a BS from Northland College, I bring both expertise and creativity to every project.

When I’m not helping businesses reduce emissions, you’ll find me cycling through Sonoma County, gardening with my family, or exploring Northern California’s incredible landscapes.
