Aaron is a seasoned negotiator, attorney, and advocate. Before his agent career, he spent 10 years on active duty as a Judge Advocate (JAG) in the Air Force. During his military career, he was ranked the #1 out of 90 trial defense lawyers in the Air Force and is an experienced litigator with over 30 jury trials. He has a unique ability to create win-win deals but also isn’t scared to hold his ground when it’s in his client’s best interest. Aaron embodies one of his favorite quotes, “No better friend, no worse enemy.”
Through representing hundreds of military members and athletes, Aaron has honed his craft in
providing service to others. He’s an over-communicator and will call or text you often to ensure
you are informed throughout the process. He’s an educator that will work to explain the complex
pre-draft and contract negotiation process.
Aaron grew up in the Bay Area, but has lived in Southern California, Mississippi, Nebraska, and
Colorado. He’s married to his high school sweetheart, Brenna, and has two children that keep
him busy outside of the office.
He looks forward to providing you and your family with outstanding service as you embark on a
new journey in professional sports or as you continue with your sports career.

Previous experience with Rosenhaus Sports Representation as an Athlete Marketing Associate.

I’m focused on building strong relationships with athletes, coaches, and national brand partners to create impactful, long-term value for clients.
