Aaron Grimes is a man who wears many hats. He spent his high school summers working at the family business, Capitol Glass Company, but while attending college at the University of Central Arkansas, he focused his time on wakeboarding and other watersports. Grimes competed in wakeboard competitions throughout most of the 2000s and was sponsored by Hyperlite Wakeboards. Once he graduated from UCA, Grimes helped his father get involved in the boating industry to open S&G Extreme Marine, and he opened his own skate shop with locations in Little Rock and Kansas City. The recession of 2008 resulted in the closing of both skate shops, and Grimes returned to the family business. In the years that followed, Grimes attended pharmacy school at UAMS, worked full time at CHI St. Vincent as a pharmacist, and now balances his time between Capitol Glass Company, the hospital, and helping his father when he can. He says,“My main day-to-day focus right now is continuing to grow Capitol Glass Company and make sure that it is still the No. 1 auto glass company in the state.”
