Aaron J. Brooks was born and raised in one of the poorest cities in America: Sebring, Florida. He attended Florida State University to study Creative Writing and worked on MFA student film projects before enlisting in the Marine Corps and completed basic training at Parris Island.Aaron rose through the ranks quickly, promoted to the rank of Sergeant and was selected for Officer Candidate School in Quantico. Aaron was commissioned as an active duty officer after college graduation, earned a Top Secret clearance and served in several overseas assignments, deploying five times after 9/11: Operation Southern Watch as part of a UN resolution, Detainee Operations at Joint Task Force Guantanamo, Security Cooperation and foreign military training in Saudi Arabia, Operation Iraqi Freedom and his final tour in Afghanistan.Aaron was Honorably Discharged in 2017 and shares his military expertise as an consultant to original scripts and screenplays. When he isn't writing, he enjoys performing on stage and screen and has been invited to lend his time and energy doing emcee work for charity events, galas, and auctions.One of Aaron's favorite ways to use his voice requires him to stop talking and do the listening; he has interviewed an impressive stable of guests across his years as a host on a weekly talk radio show in a top-ten media market in Southern California.
