Aaron is an extremely smart guy. An example of this is how he remembers every password in his head. While he was the manager of our IT department he always amazed me with the information he could pull out of his head. Aaron is someone who can be trusted with sensitive data. Aaron was easy to be around and a pleasure to work with.
