Background
Aaron Habriga is a Principal at Lorient Capital, a healthcare-focused private equity firm headquartered in Birmingham, Michigan with offices in Miami. Before entering finance, Habriga enlisted in the United States Marine Corps at the age of 17. He served as an infantry team leader and machine gunner deployed to Yusufiyah, Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2008, achieving the rank of Sergeant. He comes from a career military family whose service dates back to World War I, and he is originally from Plymouth, Wisconsin.
Following his military service, Habriga pursued higher education, earning a BBA in Finance from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he was recognized as being in the top 1% of students. He then attended Harvard Business School, graduating with an MBA. His transition from the military into private equity took him through several notable firms: he started as an analyst at Pfingsten Partners in Chicago, then moved to Silver Oak Services Partners and A&M Capital Opportunities, where he focused on investments in growth-oriented businesses.
Before joining Lorient Capital in December 2022, Habriga served as a Principal at Varsity Healthcare Partners in Los Angeles, where he concentrated on healthcare services and technology investments. At Lorient, he is part of the investment team responsible for sourcing, evaluating, and executing deals across multiple healthcare verticals. Managing Partner David Berman has praised his "great track record" in deal execution. Habriga has also been a speaker at industry events including The Medical Spa Show 2026.
