Personal & Mission Statement
Aaron Lewis has spent over 25 years in the international spaceflight industry, working with
governments, media outlets, and businesses across the globe. He is currently a Vice President at
Arianespace, Inc. handling public and media affairs in addition to business development.
His primary motivation for supporting the German American Heritage Foundation is to raise awareness about the massive contribution that Americans of German-speaking ancestry, from Muhlenberg to Koenigsmann, have made toward the spectacular cultural, military, scientific, and economic successes of the United States. Aaron has played a significant role in the GAHF over the last eight years, chairing the highly
successful gala for Peter Thiel, providing the introductions that paved the way for the recent gala for Hans Koenigsmann, and generally making regular contributions of his time, talents and treasure to the Foundation. His matrilineal ancestors hail from Baden-Württemberg and Hanover.
