Aaron is the newest member of the Concierge team — a fresh Washington State grad (Management Information Systems; Go Cougs) with CompTIA Security+ already in hand. At Indevtech he lives in Microsoft 365, networking, and security: the layer of the stack where most of a partner firm's day either works or doesn't.
Around the office he's A-A-Ron — partly a reference anyone familiar with the substitute-teacher sketch will get immediately, and partly a coordination protocol. With an Aaron and an Erin on the same payroll, name precision is the difference between a closed deal and a printer ticket. No sales calls have been misrouted yet. The system works.
Off the clock, he's chasing a lower handicap at Leilehua, his home course, usually with family or friends in tow — because the round matters less than the company. When he's not on the course, he's at a concert, or making plans to be at the next one.
