I’m Aaron Wilson a husband, father, tech enthusiast, and lifelong learner who believes in serving people with integrity, purpose, and heart.

I currently serve as the IT Manager for Wilson County Government, where I work to modernize systems, improve efficiency, and make local government more accessible to the people it serves. My goal has always been simple: use technology and teamwork to make life easier for residents and ensure county operations run smoothly, fairly, and transparently.

I was born in West Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and raised just outside Detroit, Michigan—two places that taught me the value of hard work, resilience, and community. My wife, Tiffanie, is a proud Lebanon native, and when the opportunity came to buy a home in the neighborhood where she grew up, we jumped at it. We knew it was exactly where we wanted to raise our four children, Zion, Zach, Zarai, and Zamir.

Wilson County isn’t just where we live; it’s where our family’s story continues to grow. This community has given us more than anywhere else could: a thriving environment for our kids, strong values, and a place we are truly proud to call home. And because this is our home, I’m fully invested, I have real skin in the game, to make sure Wilson County remains the best place to live, work, and raise a family.

My journey hasn’t always been easy. After facing serious health challenges, I made a commitment to change my life, losing over 220 pounds and finding a renewed passion for fitness, faith, and mental health advocacy. That experience reshaped how I view leadership: real progress starts with accountability, consistency, and compassion.

Faith is at the center of who I am. It guides my decisions, grounds my leadership, and shapes how I treat others. I believe that personal and professional growth begins with consistency, humility, and a willingness to serve. Each day is an opportunity to lead with purpose, extend grace, and take one small, faithful step toward becoming better, for my family, my community, and myself.

Every part of my journey, family, faith, service, and resilience, has shaped my belief in three simple principles that guide everything I do: People. Process. Progress.
