Aaron joined Earthworks in August of 2011 to belong to a community-centered organization that seeks to repair the world.
First with Clean Water Action, and later as the Legislative and Political Manager for the Maryland League of Conservation Voters, Aaron has canvassed, researched, and lobbied at all levels of government on a variety of environmental issues. After tours with the green groups, in 2009 Aaron joined the public affairs firm of Robert M. Brandon and Associates where he worked on health care and tax policy reform.
Aaron assists the Earthworks team in transforming hard rock mining, oil, and gas policy. Aaron was graduated from Vassar College in 2000 and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Law in 2003.
Aaron now lives (on Piscataway ancestral lands) in Baltimore with his wife Corinne and son Lazar where he volunteers for local environmental groups and cheers for the Orioles.
