Personal:
Aaron is married and with two children and believes his main calling in life is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Founder & CEO of Battle Company
Aaron has been playing the game of laser tag for over 20 years. Whether it was using the first home laser tag system from World of Wonders, gunning down his friends with Electronic Survivor Shot, or climbing on the neighbor’s roof with the Laser Challenge Team Force set, from a young age Aaron has been enjoying live gaming! He is also an avid gamer who owned an internet cafe and gaming center. This helped him gain an excellent understanding of the desires of today’s gaming market.
Feeling restrained by current technologies, Aaron decided to create his very own brand of laser tag equipment from the ground up. He formed a team of people from all over the world, and with tremendous success, he launched his very first unit in 2013. Aaron continues to help advance the world of live action gaming through innovation and the integration of new technologies. At Battle Company Aaron is the big picture guy that oversees the overall vision and direction of the company. He leads all software projects for both commercial and consumer products.
Company Goal:
To become the #1 manufacturer of commercial and consumer laser tag products worldwide.
