A native of Oakland County and the son of a retired autoworker, Aaron’s working class upbringing shaped his perspective and instilled a spirit of hard work, persistence, integrity, and personal responsibility. Aaron was the first member of his family to earn a four-year degree when he graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point, and he became the third generation of his family to serve in the military. Throughout his tenure in the Army, Aaron served our nation in numerous leadership positions as an Airborne Ranger qualified infantry officer.

After leaving active duty, Aaron began his graduate studies at the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business. While still a student at Michigan, Aaron was recalled to active duty and afforded the opportunity to serve our nation in Afghanistan. Decorated for his meritorious service to our country, Aaron is no stranger to fighting for stability and prosperity in a region embroiled in chaos and hardship, and he will bring the same determination and fighting spirit as our next State Senator.

Since earning his Master of Business Administration degree with Distinction from the University of Michigan, Aaron has worked for a leading global consulting firm helping Michigan businesses and nonprofit organizations succeed in the rapidly changing economic environment. In addition to his professional experience, Aaron has been a leader in the fight to diversify Michigan’s economy through increasing investment in clean energy production – one of the few sectors where the Michigan economy has grown over the past decade.

An intelligent, energetic, fiscally responsible, and proven leader, Aaron Bailey is ready to serve the citizens of Michigan’s 13th Senate District by bringing the same commitment and fighting spirit to the district he calls home.
