Aaron Lloyd’s story is one of dedication, ambition, and global impact. Hailing from Indianapolis, IN, by way of Louisville, KY, Aaron’s life is deeply rooted in the values of brotherhood, scholarship, and service—principles he embodies as a devout member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated. “I carry the mission of my fraternity with me daily,” Aaron shares. His commitment extends to serving communities of all backgrounds, embracing people regardless of their circumstances, age, race, or gender identity. With a Bachelor of Arts from Western Kentucky University and a Master of Professional Studies from Tennessee State University, Aaron has laid a strong foundation for his personal and professional endeavors. These achievements paved the way for his crowning moment in March 2024 when he was named Mr. International Model Icon, a prestigious title that allows him to serve as a brand ambassador and mentor for Model Icon. Shortly after, his exceptional contributions to society earned him the 2024 Change Maker of the Year Award from Revolutionary Pageants. Aaron’s journey has also taken him across continents. “I recently checked two major bucket list items off my list,” he says. These included travels to Cairo, Egypt, and South Africa, where he immersed himself in the cultures and connected with the local communities. During his time in South Africa, Aaron made a lasting impact by visiting an underfunded preschool in Soweto. “I was able to donate essential supplies and contribute financially,” he recalls, demonstrating his passion for uplifting under served communities. Aaron’s vision extends far beyond what he has already achieved. “Looking ahead, my goal is to travel to Nigeria to connect with individuals from the Hausa and Fulani tribes, where my DNA has been traced,” he explains. This deeply personal journey represents his dedication to understanding and embracing his heritage. Guided by the mantra,“Live every day as if it were your last,”Aaron Lloyd is not just leaving a legacy; he is creating a blueprint for service, authenticity, and global connection.
