Our Founder

Aaron Gailmor, our Founder & Chief Eats Officer, started Brass Roots in 2019, inspired by his father's heart condition, as well as other health issues that run in his family such as Diabetes. As someone with Celiac Disease and belief in "food as medicine", his goal was to create snacks that were nutritionally dense and whole food based, while still being delicious. Inspired by the optimism, perseverance, and community of New Orleans, Brass Roots was born. Aaron lives in New Orleans with his wife and two kids.
