About Aaron Young

My experience in sports marketing at NYU, along with my internships and years as a commissioned salesperson (starting in high school), has equipped me with a strong understanding of customer personas, buying motivations, and sales strategies. I have a proven ability to connect with customers and recommend solutions that meet their needs, and have honed these skills through years in commission based sales. I believe my experience, passion, attention to detail, and strong work ethic, combined with my ability to effectively analyze market data, make me an ideal candidate for a marketing or sales development representative role.
