        Aaron brings kindness, empathy, and thoughtfulness to his work and interactions with others. He synthesizes research and information in a concise and accessible way, using systems-thinking as well as strategic and analytical skills. Aaron is always eager and willing to offer support to colleagues and to take on additional responsibilities in service of a broader team, for example by broadening his portfolio of responsibilities for grant reports and grant monitoring in the final year of the Foundation's spend down. Aaron rolled with the dynamism of a an organization working toward closure with a successful blend of good cheer and candor. He has been a valued colleague!

        Aaron always shows up with a positive can-do attitude and blows me away with his presentation and facilitation skills. I've attended multiple presentations given by Aaron and he always manages to translate very technical water policy jargon, to just the right level for the audience, so all of us, even those outside the water team, can understand.
