I was fortunate to have worked with Aren for 4 years at Lasx. He is an incredible teammate, collaborator, and mentor. He is an extremely engaged coworker and really does go above and beyond expectations. He is always happy to share his knowledge and insight to help you develop your own skill set. He is an Excel guru and taught me so many super helpful tricks that I used daily to execute my role more efficiently and effectively. He is professional, approachable, intelligent, caring, and motivated.

I had the great pleasure to attend the MBA program with Aren at Augsburg College. Through grad school I had the opportunity to partner with him in many projects, in which his perspective and analytic work always added tremendous value to our team and our cohort overall. Aren has always proven immense passion and dedication for his work, and I am confident that he will continue to move upward in his career and as an entrepreneur.
