Aaron Shaw

“Working for and with Aaron at Pi Supply has been one of the best times of my career. The company in itself is a vibrant, stimulating and challenging environment where I was given many opportunities to learn and simply enjoy my daily work. Aaron is a very talented individual with just not enough hours in a day to achieve all that his creativity comes up with. He is a very thorough team leader and knows exactly what each member should deliver and to which quality this should be done. For a not so young individual as I am it has been at times challenging working at fairly intese rhythms but good products require dedication and lots of energy. Aaron has plenty of both and has used his determination over the years to come up not only with several successful products but also and most importantly to establish a thriving company which is continually growing and becoming increasingly relevant in the electronics market. It has been a pleasure working with him and I am sure the same will be for anyone else who will have the opportunity to do the same.”

“Excellent tutorial writer with a deep understanding of the Raspberry Pi and its add-on modules market.”

“Aaron writes regularly for the Raspberry Pi Geek magazine. He is an exceptionally motivated individual with a passion for technology. His articles are well informed and go beyond the apparent aspects of his subject matter. He is meticulous in his author reviews, and provides helpful feedback that adds precision to the final product. It has been a pleasure working with such a careful writer and generous collaborator.”

“Aaron is a very diligent freelance tech writer. He has a great writing style that makes code and tutorials accessible to readers of all levels, a skill that is sometimes hard to come by for more niche tech magazines. He is very reliable as he regularly writes to deadline, and he is a good communicator as he constantly liaises with me to ensure that the highest quality and most accurate copy is handed into the magazine. ”

“Aaron has done a great job as placement manager, shaping a new international development project in partnership with an organisation in Mexico, recruiting a technical specialist to volunteer for the partner and helping train and support that volunteer throughout her placement.”

“Aaron is a key member of The MagPi magazine, dedicating a significant portion of his time each month to the successful production of the magazine. Through the discussions we have had in relation to the magazine and the Raspberry Pi in general it is clear that Aaron is passionate about the subject of computer science and its role in education and this is reflected in his work on the magazine.”

“Aaron is excellent in every way he produces web sites and Domains in no time at all. He is a credit to businesses of all kinds including ours we are delighted that Aaron is there to help on these matters.”

“Well organised and great support in all campaigns we worked together”

“I have been Aaron's personal tutor since he commenced his studies here at Leeds some 3 years ago. He has always been an attentive and diligent student who was a regular attender of, and contributor to, the weekly tutorial sesions in years 1 and 2. I also supervised his third year project which was the front suspension design of our Formula Student race car. Aaron worked hard on the project and did a very competent and thorough job of designing and analysing a new front upright and related components which we hope will find their way on to next year's car.”

“Aaron has worked duing his industry placement, reporting to me within the engineering department, he has shown great dedication to the role at a very early stage of his placement. Aaron has always demonstrated a great commitment to his tasks and did grasp rapidly his scope of work. Aaron is a professional individual who will succeed in his future endeavours. I would have no hesitation in recommending Aaron in his chosen career's path.”

“Over the course of his Product Design A level course, Aaron demonstrated that he is a highly intelligent and creative designer and engineer. He was rigorous in his approach and clearly understood all the issues surrounding a complex set of constraints. He also demonstrated good problem solving skills to develop and realise an effective solution to his brief for a wind powered street lighting system.”
