My name is Aaron Edward David Rogers. I was born June 5th, 1986 and I am currently 23 years old. I was born in London, Ontario and lived there until I moved to Chatham, Ontario for two years when I was 21. I have a large immediate family consisting of two younger brothers, two younger sisters, mother, and step father. I enjoy seeing movies, playing video games, reading, and going out with friends and family.

I attended Sir G.E. Cartier elementary school from kindergarten through grade 8. For High school I attended South Secondary for grades 9 to 11 and H.B. Beal Secondary for Grades 11 to 13. At H.B. Beal I took the extensive art and broadcasting programs. In the broadcasting program we learned how to use various pieces of hardware and software such as video cameras, digital cameras, audio recording devices, mixing boards, television broadcast equipment, adobe Illustrator, adobe Photoshop, final cut pro, and so on. We would broadcast the morning news and announcements over the schools television system and would alternate between doing different jobs each week to run it. We would also be required to produce PSA’s and intro movies to play during and before the morning program as well. The art program I took at the school was a 4 credit course which ran half day for the entire school year, as was the broadcasting program. In the art classes I learned various art techniques in life drawing, photography, model making, lithography, painting and art history. I believe with the combination of the two programs I was able to learn how to be artistic in a digital media time.

I have had four jobs so far in my life. Two were in grocery stores and two were in Call centers. These jobs provided me with valuable customer service skills and also good communication skills. I also already knew how to use computers but any experience with using them is always an asset as it was with my call center experience.
