Aaron Booker’s Summary

I've actively worked in the Technology industry since 1996 - and have worked in and started several technology related firms since. I'm passionate about business and technology and I can both sell and deeply understand technology - which I find is an unusual combination.

I am now working at taking my past experience with technology and technology vendors to provide Video Services to the Technology Industry. It's exciting to have another startup in my life!
