Aaron is a 29-year-old Canadian serial entrepreneur who co-founded Revitasize at 18 years old—an organic cold-pressed juice kitchen serving high-quality juices, smoothies, acai bowls, and a variety of vegan options. Within four years, Revitasize expanded to over eight locations across Toronto.

He recently launched @thefoundersclub, a community for high-growth founders seeking virtual, in-person, and local connections with like-minded CEOs, founders, and executives in the CPG, e-commerce, and retail sectors.

Prior to this, Aaron co-founded a sleep improvement company called Hush, selling a product now considered to be the world's most popular (and reviewed) weighted blanket—designed to help those with sleep issues, anxiety, insomnia, ADHD, and more. Within its first 24 months, Hush grew into an eight-figure brand. The company launched a successful Kickstarter campaign that raised over $1.5 million in 30 days—making it one of the top 10 most-funded Canadian 30-day campaigns ever.

Hush also appeared on the Canadian hit TV show Dragons' Den and earned the "Most Epic Pitch" of the season, securing a bidding war between all six dragons.

In 2021, Aaron sold Hush to Canadian sleep giant Sleep Country in a landmark acquisition, marking a significant milestone in Canadian e-commerce history.

The brand has become trusted by over 150,000 people, innovating with products like the Hush Pillow, Mattress, Iced Cooling Sheets, and more.

Aaron is also a former Canadian Junior Hockey League player, ranked 5th in all-time scoring in the OJHL, an OUA Champion, public speaker, and startup advisor.

He was named to Forbes 30 Under 30 in 2020.
