I met Aaron when I was on a panel with him at Bootstrap Maryland, before Living Social was big. He was a class act then, and he obviously still is.

Living Social -- more than any other company in the last 5 years -- showed that the DC area startup community is alive and well and can play with the big boys in the consumer internet space. LS almost single-handedly overcame the region's inferiority complex in this regard. I hope Aaron is sufficiently proud of the role he played there.
