Aaron first picked up a barbell and started cooking when he was 3 years old. Since then, he has never missed out on a chance to workout or cook.
He graduated Magna Cum Laude from San Diego State University with a B.S. in Kinesiology and a B.A. in Finance. During that time, he also achieved the NSCA-CSCS and excelled in powerlifting.
Upon graduation, he was hired at Velocity Sports Performance in Concord (by Nabil!) as a Strength and Conditioning Coach. When his good friend Nabil opened CrossFit Sweat Shop, Aaron became intrigued with the new world of physical challenges.
Two highlights were competing in Aromas for the Sweat Shop Team and finishing top 50 in Sectionals as an individual.
He then followed his other passion and went off into the culinary world, ultimately leading to the creation of his own company, Hiroshi’s Catering. This is how his two passions combined: local, organic, sustainable fuel to power hard work outs!
Aaron is passionate about combining strength training and clean eating to help others perform at their best — both in and out of the gym.
