Hello, my name is Aaron Jones, and I’m from Greensboro, North Carolina. I have roughly three years of experience in Cybersecurity including education, and hands-on-training. Majority of my work experience comes from serving in the in the U.S. Marine Corps. While serving I developed a strong sense of discipline, teamwork, and a passion for problem-solving which helped me navigate towards this new profession.

I am a Cybersecurity Graduate Student, and NSF CyberCorps®: Scholarship for Service (SFS) recipient. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity (August 2024) and am currently pursuing a Master’s in Cybersecurity (expected May 2026). My certifications include CompTIA Security+, and I am actively working toward my Project Management Professional (PMP) certification to enhance my project leadership capabilities.

Outside of work and academics, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, trying out new restaurants, and into DIY projects with my wife. I also love coaching my son and daughter in football and track. Sharing my love for sports as a coach and a parent helps them develop work ethic while creating memories for a lifetime.
