Bio:

Aaron has performed as a professional actor and singer in PNW regional cabarets, concerts, musicals, operas, plays, readings, and recordings or over 30 years. From The Music Man to The Secret Garden, audiences at performing arts houses like the 5th Avenue Theatre, Village Theatre, Seattle Childrens Theatre, Benaroya Hall, McCall Hall, the Edmonds Performing Arts Center, and Everett Performing Arts Center have enjoyed his high lyric tenor voice and open-hearted expressiveness.

Aaron currently sings in the choir at Congregational Church on Mercer Island. He sings for Seniors via NM Entertainment and will perform at the Seattle Cabaret Festival in May. He is a member of Actors' Equity Association, the National Association of Teachers of Singing, and serves on the board of Theatre Puget Sound.

In the past, he has served on the board of Showtunes Theatre Company and was employed as a Marketing Manager at Village Theatre.

Aaron also has a passion for stories and games. He has promoted games, like Pathfinder and Starfinder, at Paizo and Dragon's Demand at Ossian Studios. This translates to the gamification of practice for his voice studio students.
