        I attended Palos Verdes Peninsula High School with Aaron and we have stayed in touch throughout our college years. Aaron is a gifted public speaker and a talented communicator who grasps the complexities of politics. He is my go-to contact whenever I need perspectives on upcoming elections, divisive political issues and international affairs. Aaron is a people person at heart and has the unique ability to serve as a strong decisive leader, while also properly incorporating the input and talents of his team. As an efficient, focused and knowledgeable young professional, Aaron would be a valuable asset to any firm.
