From the audience

Cannot recommend Aaron enough as an MC: competent, warm, quick on his feet and just incredibly nice.

Carson Gross · Big Sky Dev Con 2026

Idk who this guy is but he's way better than the emcees Big Sky Dev Con had yesterday.

WarrenBuffering · Big Sky Dev Con 2026

An unbelievable MC, polished, humble, kind, genuine, talented & willing to do whatever it takes to make a good experience for the speakers & attendees.

Carson Gross · Big Sky Dev Con 2025

Aaron is one of the best emcees I've ever seen, he's unflappable, funny, and personable on stage in a way that makes you think he's just chatting with you (and not a room of hundreds).

Jake Bathman · Laracon US 2025

Aaron is an incredible MC and such a nice guy.

Andre Landgraf · Laracon US 2025

Most don't know how hard being a good emcee can be. One needs to keep things moving without making oneself the center of attention. You lifted up the speakers, your questions afterwards were useful, made for a good transition.

Doug Johnson · Laracon US 2024
