Aaron grew up in West Bloomfield and attended Pine Lake, West Hills and Andover. At Andover, he lettered for three years in soccer and was named captain his senior year. He received all district honors, and was named most improved player in both '94 and '96, so he understands the value of hard work.  He and Genevieve were both fortunate enough to be trained in the teaching of young children by Ernie Knecht, the founder of the program and the "father" of soccer in the Bloomfield area. They worked together and alternated running the program throughout their educations. He has over 10 years coaching experience with ages ranging from 3 to 18 years old. He has coached both the West Hills Middle School girls and boys soccer teams for the past six seasons and has been an assistant coach for the Andover Men's varsity team for the past three seasons.
