Before beginning his mortgage career in 2018, Aaron taught math at Hilton Head Island High School. Originally from Buffalo, New York, he earned a degree in mathematics and adolescent education from St. John Fisher College and a master’s degree in educational leadership from the University of South Carolina. Today, he brings that same passion for teaching to helping clients understand the numbers, ask questions, and make informed financing decisions.

His clients frequently praise his patience, responsiveness, and ability to explain complex details in everyday terms. With strong ties to the Lowcountry community, Aaron works to build lasting relationships and help clients feel comfortable and confident from their first conversation through closing.
