Aaron has been a resident of the Mankato area for over two decades. He has been involved in customer service-oriented businesses since age 15, and has been self-employed since the age of 17. Prior to reaping the joys (and, at times, headaches) of self-employment, Aaron was employed as a digital media specialist and head of advertising for a small media and marketing firm, where he gained first-hand experience in the many aspects of marketing and advertising. As a result, and through continued education and long hours of hard work, Aaron has gained solid experience in marketing, advertising, video and audio production, web design and graphic design, and brings these gathered talents to real estate to more-effectively market properties and serve his clientele.
Aaron is a professional, full-time REALTOR® working throughout the Greater Mankato area, and is a member of the National Association of REALTORS®, the Minnesota Association of REALTORS®, the Minneapolis Association of REALTORS®, and the REALTOR® Association of Southern Minnesota. He holds himself to the highest standards of ethics, conduct, professionalism and especially, customer service. Aaron believes very deeply in the value of education, and feels that the only way to serve his clientele effectively is to constantly educate and re-educate himself (and his clients) on a regular basis. In fact, within just 14 months as a full-time REALTOR®, Aaron logged the equivalent of almost ten years worth of Continuing Education, along with earning his GRI® and ePRO® designations, and has also been certified as a Property Marketing Expert® and an Accredited Staging® Professional positioning him among the top 5% of real estate professionals throughout the country. Now that’s commitment.
Aaron’s interests and passions in life include travel, music, art, food, philosophy, psychology, world culture, learning new things, meeting new people, and most importantly: having fun. Aaron lives an active lifestyle, and spends much time outdoors camping, canoeing, golfing, snowboarding, skydiving and playing paintball. He also enjoys cooking and entertaining for friends and family. Aaron spends his free time playing guitar, writing and creating digital artwork.
