Why Education Advanced?
With a passion for building technology that makes a difference, I was drawn to Education Advanced because of its mission to empower educators and improve student outcomes. After years of leading engineering and product teams across different industries, I wanted to focus my work where it could have a meaningful impact. At EAI, I have the opportunity to help shape innovative solutions that streamline operations for school districts, enable better data-driven decisions, and ultimately support the success of millions of students and the educators who guide them.
Outside of Work
Outside of work, Aaron enjoys family time, good food, and cheering on the Carolina Hurricanes. Though he now lives near the coast, Aaron’s mountain roots mean he’s always looking for an excuse to hit the trails and enjoy the outdoors.
