Biography
Aaron was born and raised in Crested Butte, Colorado, by a family who eats, breathes and sleeps skiing. His Grandpa moved from Switzerland to Crested Butte to start the ski school at the resort and put Aaron’s mother and two brothers on skis at a young age. His parents decided to do the same and so Aaron started skiing when he was only 18 months old, competing in local contests from the age of 8. At 15 he moved to Vail, Colorado, to attend the Vail Ski and Snowboard Academy so he could ski more. And at 16 he joined Head skis which has been his family ever since!
