A fourth-generation Las Vegas resident, Aguero undertook a special course of undergraduate study at UNLV under the late Dr. Shannon Bybee and graduated with honors from the William S. Boyd School of Law. Aguero started his career as an intern/analyst with Coopers & Lybrand’s (now PriceWaterhouseCoopers’) financial advisory services group. He founded Applied Analysis in 1997.
Aguero’s 19-year work history demonstrates a wide range of abilities. He has performed countless economic and fiscal impact assessments for projects of local, regional and national significance. Some of his major projects include The Hospitality Industry’s Impact on the State of Nevada, delivered to the Federal Gaming Impact Study Commission in 1998. In 2003, he chaired the Governor’s Task Force on Tax Policy’s technical working group, co-authoring its 1,400-page report and ultimately receiving a Good Government Award from the Nevada Taxpayers Association.
Aguero has worked on establishing Applied Analysis’ litigation support practice; expanding the reach of the company’s primary research arm, Discovery Nevada; restructuring the recently acquired SalesTraq brand; and, in 2014, launching Applied Analysis’ online data tracking and analysis application, MyResearcher.com.
More recently, Aguero acted as lead staff for the Southern Nevada Tourism Infrastructure Committee. The committee’s 16-months of public hearing ultimately culminated in a Special Session of the Nevada State Legislature where Senate Bill 1 paved the way for a $1.9 billion NFL stadium and $1.4 billion convention center expansion and Assembly Bill 1 provided increase funding for police officers within the regions tourism corridor and throughout southern Nevada. At the bill signing Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval said of Aguero’s work, “Jeremy, you can always be counted upon for honest, accurate, and concise information that we can take to the bank, and I appreciate it.” Aguero is also active in the community. He has taught hotel law and data for policy analysis as distinguished professor of practice at UNLV and he currently serves on the board of Nevada State Bank.
