Aaron founded and led a distributed team of thirteen individuals as a teenager to develop the independent expansion pack Abyss of Pandemonium for Quake, a popular PC video game. The game was licensed, boxed, and distributed in Europe and North America. A decade later, the game was open-sourced, and today, you can download and play it for free.

As Webmaster at National RV, Aaron brought National RV online in 2000. He managed multiple web properties, including National RV, Country Coach, an Investor Relations site, and a Community/Club for raving fans of our recreational vehicle products and the RV lifestyle. In 2002, Aaron transitioned into Inside Sales and then to Sales Administration. Aaron was responsible for proposing what motorhomes to build and when, managing dealer and retail incentive programs, recognizing revenue, transportation and delivery of RVs to dealers, and pretty much anything else required to keep promises by Regional Sales Managers to dealers and retail customers. In 2007, Aaron stepped into the role of Regional Sales Manager of the East territory for Country Coach and supported dealers along the East, including Lazy Days, headquartered in Tampa, Fl.
In 2009, Aaron returned to his passion for building with technology. He has since served as an individual contributor or manager and has the privilege of contributing to projects for Adobe, Bloomberg, Couchbase, PowerChord, TheoremOne, Wrecking Ball, and more.
