Aaron M. Stephens
Aaron was born in 1973 in a small village in South Vietnam, during the Vietnam war. He is the 7th son of a 7th son. He has an identical twin brother who is the 8th son. At the early age of 4 months, both boys were adopted by a Caucasian American Army family.
Due to his unique birth lineage, he was gifted and could pick up new skills simply by watching another person. He was always a straight A student and excelled in many areas. In addition to writing he also is a talented artist, singer, dancer, and web designer. Children and animals have always been very fond of Aaron, due to his kind, warm energy.
As a young child he always had a voracious appetite for books, with incredible reading speed he would devour books in an afternoon. He was always known for having many books he was reading, and was often called a “bookworm”. He has a semi-photographic memory and can instantly recall textbooks at will. As a child he realized that life was not so adventurous and he would turn to books to escape into someone else’s world, at least temporarily. After reading thousands of other author’s work and styles, he found himself very critical of other’s work and wanted to write something really good, in a literal sense and as his contribution to society and the world. Most importantly, it had to be fun.
In high school he was musical, smart and athletic. He had many friends and served on the student advisory board (student council). He was in the swing choir, the honor society and the art honor society. While scheduled to graduate in 1992, he actually graduated early in 1990, starting college immediately at Kearney State College, originally majoring in English.
When he found out he could only be an English teacher he quickly changed his major to his second favorite subject, marketing. Ironically many years later he became a college professor for almost a decade before focusing on his writing career. He taught graduating seniors how to market themselves and their skills before going into the job market. He is viewed as an authority in the human resource world. He was also the marketing manager for the Colorado Bar Association, continuing legal education. His interest in employment law facilitating employment law seminars for attorneys is what prompted him continuing his own education earning his M.B.A. in human resources in 2004.
