Default $6 SNG: Weak Play of AA?

Gang,

Im still beating myself over the head for this play last night. I think I MAJORLY underplayed this hand last night early in a SNG. I constantly find myself either being overly-aggressive and not getting good value out of strong hands or trying to be less aggressive and getting myself pushed off of strong hands which would have won.

The following hand was only 4 hands into the SNG so I had no reads on any of the players. How SHOULD I have played this? Was my PF raise too small? If so, whats a good guideline on PF reraises? The pair of J on the flop scared me and I figured one of the hands that called my PF raise to possibly be AJ, KJ, JT. Should I have raised MP1 on the flop to see where I stood?
