1. But first, the NFC Championship! One of the BEST defensive players EVER, Aaron says the one thing he’s missing is a Super Bowl win. It’s something he uses as motivation to dominate, and knows it would be even more special to win it at home in LA this year. 
  2. Got 99 Solutions…literally! Perhaps the most fitting name ever, AD99 Solutions is in fact the name of Aaron’s nonprofit. He created the foundation as a way to give back to his hometown of Pittsburgh, with a focus on empowering local underserved youth. 
  3. We’ve got ourselves a Super Team! And we’re not talking about the Rams. Aaron actually co-owns a sports nutrition brand with none other than Giannis Antetokounmpo. Called Ready Nutrition, Aaron even gets to assist with product development. 
  4. All about work ethic. Believe it or not, Aaron was a bit of a lazy kid growing up. He loved to snack and was NOT a fan of chores, so his dad had him start working out instead. They started lifting together when Aaron was about 12, and the rest is history!
  5. It’s not a party without ping pong…you just might not wanna play Aaron! That’s right, he has some serious ping pong skills. One of his hobbies, Aaron says he’s been playing since he was about 14, and is NOT shy about showing off his talent!

I created Fangirl Sports Network as a place for female sports fans to follow their favorite teams with content and coverage that speaks directly to females. It started with one and then eight and now 32 NFL Fangirls and 15 NBA Fangirls.
