“I hired Aaron for a bucket-list trip into the North Cascades after taking an AIARE 2 class with him, and it was the best decision I could have made. Not only did he teach us invaluable technical skills, but his kindness and amiable nature made me feel I had made a new friend. I would hire Aaron again in second—he’s someone I want on my team no matter what the objective.”
