APPLICATIONS ENGINEER

Aaron Sutherland

My name is Aaron Sutherland, and I am joining Kaidi as a Customer Service Technician. It is my goal to keep our customers happy and our salesmen selling as I work with Engineering to optimize our product. I look forward to familiarizing myself with the height adjustable industry and learning from everyone on the team! 

 I was born and raised in downtown Grand Haven, Michigan. Growing up here, I was able to spend a lot of time outdoors, relaxing at the beach, skateboarding around town, playing soccer, and snowboarding at our local ski hill. When indoors, I spent my time building LEGO’s or playing games like Need for Speed on my XBOX. I also took piano lessons and even performed in a few talent shows with a friend as a two-man band. After graduating from Grand Haven High School, I went on to study Exercise Science and Athletic Training at Grand Valley State University.  

 While attending Grand Valley, I taught myself how to use digital audio workspaces (or DAWs) and began producing music on my computer. I worked on music more and more until I ultimately decided to shift my focus entirely and pursue music production.  

While I no longer pursue music as a career, I still enjoy writing songs and visiting music festivals when the opportunity arises. Other hobbies I enjoy outside of work include playing video games, playing soccer in recreational leagues, and running.
