Aaron Kyle Andresen (/‘ ærənˈkaɪl ænˈdriːsən/ AIR-on k-AHY-l an-DREE-sin; born May 22, 1985), known formerly on Facebook, SoundCloud and Twitch as Ahlsocrazi (an absurdist, homophone-moniker representation of the ideological belief that others are 'all so crazy’ or ‘also crazy’), and now professionally as Fox0r, among other less formal colloquialisms and gamertags, such as: The Hive King, Lord Xor, The Supreme Commander, Supreme Commander Xor, The Captain, Captain Fox0r, Fox, FoxdizzzL, Foxzilla, Gray Fox, the New Gray Fox, The Facebook Felon, The Orange Bomber, Chad Legendary, Mechwolf2285, Rockhawk85, Got Lead?, and FoxOOOOr, is a former Division I collegiate athlete, American cyberathlete, and co-founder of the eSports organization, Born 1337, alongside Erik ‘BraHn, the Raid King’ Olson and Daniel ‘AssDan’ Allen.

Andresen, a rehabilitated felon, is an accomplished thought leader, visionary, social influencer and entrepreneur, as well as an established, and formally-trained academician and autodidact. He is recognized as a craftsman in several fields of study and industrial sectors, including, but not limited to, art, business administration, education, gaming, journalism, mass communication, media and culture, music, psychology, public relations, and world-building. By trade, he is a film director and producer, screenwriter, actor, rapper, songwriter, self-published author, mass communications expert and consultant, graphic designer, digital artist, Twitch video game streamer, YouTube content creator, evangelist, mental health activist, and founder of the Aggropop movement.

He is a former globally-certified project management professional (PMP) with the Project Management Institute (PMI). His certification, which must be renewed every three years, which was originally acquired on December 5, 2012 after passing the PMP-certification exam on his first attempt while working for Lighthouse Global, expired on December 5, 2018, following a string of medical emergencies brought about by stress pertaining to a custody battle for his four children from his second marriage, which he later abandoned to focus on his own mental wellness, citing judicial bias, prior to re-engaging in December, 2021.

Andresen came to prominence in 2014 after publishing a radically honest and controversial resume to his personal LinkedIn profile during a manic episode while he was working as a project manager with the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, WA. He was consequently fired from the position after word of his candor spread and the story was subsequently picked up and covered by the website, BroBible. According to Brandon Wenerd, the journalist responsible for the article, Andresen’s publication was “One of the funniest thing[s] [he’d] ever come across in [his] days of Internet-ing” and “show[ed] how much of a farce LinkedIn actually [was]”. Wenerd himself questioned the validity of Andresen’s identity given the uncommon level of transparency displayed in the resume, saying, “I don’t know if Aaron Kyle Andresen – allegedly a Washington State alumnus who graduated in 2007 – is a real person or not”. A full copy of the resume is included in Andresen’s first book ‘How Dad Found Himself in the Padded Room: A Bipolar Father’s Gift for the World’. In the current version of that book, there is a typo in regard to Andresen’s tenure with McDonalds, which was actually in 2007, not 2001.

Andresen acquired a Bachelor of Arts in Communication with an emphasis in advertising from the Edward R. Murrow School of Communication at Washington State University in Pullman, WA upon graduation in 2007.

Andresen notes that his family’s checkered past, revolving around alcoholism and parental alienation, is one of the main motivators for his activism and artistry. Three events, which transpired before his birth, highlight his impetus:

The Systematic Parental Alienation and Subsequent Death of Owen Elden Fairchild, Jr.
On July 11, 1949:

Aaron’s paternal grandmother, Gladys Matthews Fairchild was awarded a default decree of dissolution pertaining to her marriage to Aaron’s grandfather, Owen Elden Fairchild, Jr.. At the time, she was pregnant with Aaron’s unborn father, Robert, whose last name would be changed after birth. Robert was systematically alienated from a relationship with his biological father, Owen, and the trauma resulting to both of them as a result led to a number of premature deaths in the family.

On October 18, 1974, Owen died in a two-car collision east of North Bend, Washington. Alcohol was believed to have been a factor in the accident. Andresen later noted that [one would have to be foolish to believe Fairchild’s alienation from his children didn’t play a part in the alcoholism that would play a part in his undoing.

The Death of Diana Ruth Dietrich:

On August 12, 1982, Diana Ruth Andresen (surname: Dietrich), Aaron’s biological father, Robert Thomas Andresen (née Fairchild)’s second wife, died of anaphylaxis brought about by an allergic reaction to a bee sting in front of the couple’s four young children while she was making them dinner.

As a result of Diana’s death, Robert, an alcoholic, would spiral further into instability and was later admitted to a psychiatric unit in 1984, where he would meet Aaron’s future mother, Marguerite, an inpatient being treated for depression following the dissolution of a two-year first marriage rife with physical abuse. The two married on September 29, 1984, and Aaron was conceived shortly thereafter.

The Death of his Half-Sister Nichole:

On March 5, 2020, while Andresen was incarcerated at Washington State Penitentiary, his half-sister, Nichole Elizabeth Gamache, died of acute alcohol poisoning.

Aaron was born on May 22, 1985 via emergency caesarean section at Stevens Hospital (now Swedish Medical Center) in Edmonds, WA, to two disabled American lower-class parents on Social Security welfare. He has five living half-siblings and one deceased half-sister on his father’s side from two separate marriages. He is his mother’s only child, and was his father’s last known child. Both of his parents are of English ancestry, and his ancestors migrated from the Kingdom of Great Britain and fought alongside other Patriots in the American War for Independence. Several women on his maternal grandfather, Robert Leslie Bateman’s, side of the family are members of a New York chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

On Christmas Eve, 1984, his mother, Marguerite Joan Andresen (née Bateman), was informed by doctors that Aaron was stillborn and that she had miscarried following a post-early pregnancy bleeding examination. She was instructed to schedule a date to have Aaron’s fetus removed. Upon hearing this, Marguerite sought a second opinion from her family’s general practitioner, Malcolm Garber, MD., of Shoreline, WA, who determined she had not miscarried as originally expected.

In May of the following year, Marguerite began to hemorrhage unexpectedly and severely and was rushed to Steven’s Hospital, where it was discovered that she was suffering from placenta previa. Despite high perinatal mortality odds[20], both Aaron and his mother survived. Aaron was born forty-three days premature to his expected date of birth, United States' Independence Day. Andresen cites his expected birthdate as one of many examples of synchronicity in action in his life, given his family involvement in the American Revolution, and refers to it often as one of the main sources from which he derives confidence.

The first year of Andresen’s life set him up for struggle. During that year, his mother and father divorced following alleged acts of infidelity on his father’s part. After the divorce, Robert left the family and his son to start a new life on his own. Andresen and his father would not reunite until 18 years later after his wife, Shannon, tracked them down, in an act of love, unbeknownst to Aaron.

Aaron’s notable life of reckless driving and questionable decision-making began early at the age of two. According to eye-witness testimony from both his mother, Marguerite, and his maternal grandfather, Robert, Aaron disengaged the parking brake of his family’s Chevrolet Citation while Robert was working on repairing the vehicle. When later asked about the incident, Aaron told interviewers he doubted the validity of his memories regarding the incident until he later found record of it in his mother’s diary while playing in her room while he was older. Joan later confirmed the incident did indeed happen, noting the family’s gratitude to God for the providence involved with the parking brake staying engaged until Bateman had gotten out from underneath the car to grab something inside of the house.

Aaron recalls ages 3 and 4 being relatively positive in his life, citing family holiday celebrations such as birthdays, Thanksgivings and Christmases as being profound foundational experiences for him. According to his mother, Marguerite, his Christian family put particular emphasis on togetherness during the holiday seasons, aiming to establish long-term traditions – most notably the annual tradition of reading the historical accounts of the birth of Jesus Christ in the Book of Luke, Chapter 2, which her father started and Aaron subsequently passed down to his children, Jayden, Jaxson, Owen and Finley.

Andresen during one of his imaginary town conferences, circa 1990:

Andresen has noted that the active imagination which has enabled him to put such extensive work into crafting his fictional planet, Annai, has existed since as early as four years old, and has noted many times during interviews that he would often rely on conversing with his stuffed animals during ‘town conferences’ he would hold in order to pass the time while his grandpa, a master carpenter and shipwright who was also the reverend at their local church in Shoreline, Washington, the Aurora Church of the Nazarene, worked. He attributes being an only child and growing up alone as main factors involved in strengthening his ability to imagine and create things that don’t exist.
