Aran is a 2010er from the Queen City of the West, Cincinnati, Ohio. He is a die hard fan of all things Cincinnati, so ask about Graeter's, Skyline Chili, the Bengals, or why Pete Rose should be in the Baseball Hall of Fame and you're in for a long couple of hours. Aran is on the Varsity Lightweight Rowing team and is a member of the all varsity athlete a capella group Jock Jams. If you have any questions about Cloister, don't hesitate to ask him-- he can usually be found moonwalking on Cloister's dance floor or in the TV room tearing it up on Rock Band.
