Aaron & Danielle

White Pine Kitchen is owned and operated by husband-and-wife team Aaron and Danielle, who bring a shared passion for thoughtful food, hospitality, and memorable gatherings to every event.

Aaron is a self-taught chef with more than two decades of culinary experience. Most recently, he serves as Estate Chef for the Consulate of France in Boston and as Executive Chef and Chef Instructor at Saltbox Kitchen in Concord, Massachusetts. His depth of knowledge in food, service, and hospitality allows him to create experiences that are as seamless as they are delicious.

Danielle trained in pastry arts at the Culinary Institute of America and holds dual degrees in Hospitality Administration and Gastronomy from Boston University. Drawing on her extensive experience in events and baking, she brings an eye for detail, creativity, and warmth to every aspect of service.

Their story began in Portland, Oregon—a city known for its vibrant and creative food scene—before bringing them east to New England. Danielle proudly embraces her Colombian roots and grew up in Maine, while Aaron was raised in Chicago with deep Polish-Sicilian influences. Together, their backgrounds inspire a style of cooking and hospitality that is personal, diverse, and rooted in the places and traditions they love.

Today, Aaron and Danielle live northwest of Boston with their children and beloved fur baby, continuing to build White Pine Kitchen around the things that matter most to them: great food, genuine hospitality, and bringing people together.
