working multiple jobs while taking classes. At PSU, he learned many
skills and principles such as CNC machining, heat treatment,
metallurgy, CAD and CAM, Softwares

where he graduated top in his class.
In
Aaron's free time he enjoys riding ATV's, hunting, fishing and doing
anything outdoors. He commented that as a kid he remembered
going to the dirt track and only dreamed of being able to work
in this industry.
