        I have had the pleasure of knowing Aaron since 2014 when I became a new leader in Comcast Direct Sales for the Washington Region. Aaron has been a fantastic peer and mentor over the years. He's someone I have been able to lean on for support and sound advice. He's an example of radical candor, thoughtful questioning, and critical thinking. Aaron mentored and led me as a new Area Sales Manager in 2016 when I was promoted into a new role. He helped me navigate through my first 6-8 months in role and worked through some difficult transitions with some sound advice. I highly recommend Aaron for any organization looking to grow their leadership strength.  David Trujillo
      
          



            
              
        
              
  

    
        Aaron is one of the brightest leaders I have worked with.  He is a solutions oriented, detail focused, problem solver.  His ability to use data to read the market and spot trends enables him to see threats and opportunities from a great distance.  This gives him credibility with his leaders, peers and his team.  An asset to any team, Aaron is a top notch leader.  I will always look forward to any opportunity to work with Aaron and expect him to continue to do great things in his career!
