        Aarik is a really sharp guy, he learns new and difficult ideas quickly and is able to contribute in any discussion.  I really enjoyed working with him and would recommend him as a great teammate. Nick Hein
      
          



            
              
        
              
  

    
        Aarik is a true strategist. He is able to look deeply into a problem to tease out the nuances within to help develop a solution that is cohesive and relevant to clients. He continuously strives for improvement and is able to both receive and give feedback in a constructive manner. He is skilled in verbally working through problems and coming to a conclusion that gives both the why and the steps forward. I would recommend Aarik as a great asset to any team, especially one that is involved in transformation, marketing, or business strategy.
