Aaron has a passion for youth representation which led him to take bold action. After noticing the lack of young voices in decision-making processes at a local community forum, Aaron took the initiative to organise his own Youth Forums. 


With no prior experience, he booked a meeting room, drafted discussion questions, and invited young people and decision-makers via social media. His first forum saw 44 young people from 14 schools in attendance. 


Since then, Aaron has upscaled his efforts, most recently organising the Brisbane Youth Forum at Parliament House, bringing together 80 young people from 22 schools alongside three government ministers. Driven by a vision for a more inclusive society, Aaron’s action-oriented mindset and fearless approach to leadership continue to inspire change.
