Aaron is a filmmaker, musician, programmer and avid cave explorer living in Nashville, TN. CHEST is his first feature horror film and Jeffrey's Hell is his sophomore film, exploring more of Appalachian Horror and his own inner demons.
This movie (Jeffrey's Hell) is very personal to me. Filmed over the course of a year while solo caving and hiking, and occasionally bringing a friend or fellow caver along for the ride). This movie not only explores some of the legends where I grew up but is also a very personal look into my own brain and struggles with mental health, identity, and existentialism in the modern world.
