HOBBIES
Aaron’s hobbies don’t stray too far from his professional interests. He writes and produces music in his indie-pop band The Farside. 🎸 Aaron also enjoys writing jingles and short songs for different organizations like the WV Lottery and the National Wildlife Federation. When he is not getting too involved with his music interests, he is also active in the local filmmaking community. 🎬 It’s safe to say that Aaron gets far too attached to his hobbies and they become part of his personality. One “normal” hobby he has is making different kinds of coffee and will obsess over his nitro cold brew process in the summertime. ☕️
