Aaron’s youth was spent around tractors and cows on his family’s farm in Kansas. When he came to Chicago in 2012 with a short term youth mission group, the experience caused him to reevaluate his own salvation. Aaron has now worked with kids for the past eight years with a emphasis on at risk youth for three. He is married to a curly haired, Christ loving woman from Kansas named Reegan. He says, “I used to hate Chicago and loved the plains of Kansas. Now, years later, I would never want to live anywhere else besides Chicago.”
