Board Profile: Aaron Ausland

Aaron Ausland, CEO and owner of Ausland Group, is proud to be a third generation Southern Oregonian. Alongside his wife, Kelsy Ausland (a.k.a. the President of Ausland Group), Aaron stays busy running a “world class—locally scaled” commercial design and construction firm operating throughout the greater Pacific Northwest. When he’s not working—or helping a number of non-profit organizations, he enjoys jet boating, fishing, and exploring remote places around Oregon. Aaron also enjoys traveling and fishing in the South Pacific.

Fun Fact: Little known to most of the business world, Aaron’s high school football team was undefeated an SOC champion!
