I'm Aaron Burnette, a Creative Director with 10+ years leading brand identity, sponsorship creative, and large-scale print production for top NASCAR organizations. I also built and ran an independent graphics and wrap production company for a decade, handling client management, design, and print production as a solo operator. Through Roush Fenway Keselowski (RFK) Racing's partnership with Fenway Sports Group, I've collaborated with FSG's creative team on projects spanning the Boston Red Sox, Liverpool FC, the Pittsburgh Penguins, and Boston Common Golf, upholding brand integrity across world-class sports properties. This entrepreneurial foundation led me to launching an in-house graphics program at RFK Racing that saves approximately $750K annually and to helping close over $20M in partnership deals with Fortune 500 brands including Kroger, Coca-Cola, and Ford.
