I am Aaron Byrnes, an entrepreneur and import-export professional whose career has been shaped by hands-on work, calculated risk, and an independent spirit. I was born on the East Coast and raised in a small town, where I learned the value of hard work from an early age. I began my career in construction, working primarily on residential projects before expanding into commercial plumbing.

In 1990, I entered the import-export industry while working with rugs and antiquities. That experience awakened my entrepreneurial instincts and inspired me to establish my own import-export business. I later moved to Southern California and developed strong ties to the Newport Beach area.

I approach business much like I approach poker: I study the people involved, consider the odds, manage risk, and act when the right opportunity appears. Away from work, I enjoy sailing, pickleball, physical fitness, fine dining, fashion, travel, poker, pinochle, and other games of chance. I value time on the water, discovering new places, and experiences that broaden my perspective. My path has been defined by curiosity, resilience, and the freedom to build a life on my own terms. I continue to pursue new opportunities with confidence, discipline, and an open mind daily.
