Bio
Bob Simpkins
I worked with Aaron in the organization of the International 505 Yacht Racing Association 2004 World Championships that were held in Santa Cruz, California. Aaron was active in all stages of planning over a two year span prior to the event. He was also directly responsible for organizing and conducting the measurement process of over 100 racing boats. He was able to do this as well as be a participant in the event. Aaron is easy to work with and is task oriented. I would recommend him for a management position.
Robert J. Daly
Aaron has provided top notch customer service, problem resolution and attention to operational details to my organization for many years. Not only that, but he always has a fine way of presenting himself and communicating with me and my colleagues at Akibia. His follow up skills are without peer. It is without reservation that I heartily recommend Aaron to any employer.
