With 20 years of experience across various industries, he brings deep insights and innovative thinking to foster inclusive, purpose-driven workplaces. ?? Expertise: DEI strategy, talent development, coaching, and data-driven decision-making. ?? Background: Aaron’s diverse career journey spans finance, nonprofit, consulting, and tech sales, equipping him with a unique ability to influence change and create impact without authority.

Beyond DEI: Aaron is a dynamic speaker on DEIB (InclusionAF), a career clarity coach (CoachingAF), a life skills educator (GroanUp), and an advocate for pan-Asian leaders through Ascend. ??Aaron’s #1 Career Design Tip Gain perspective. When I started my career, I thought I’d stay in finance my whole life because it was the only thing I’d done up to that point. As I then moved into nonprofit, went off to business school, and did tours of duty in consulting, tech sales, and DEIB work, the additional perspective helped me define what I needed, what I loved, and what I hated about each job, company, or industry. You don’t need to change jobs yourself to gain perspective—talk to people about what they do, what they care about, and fold those lessons into your own designed career.
