Welcome

Thanks for stopping by. My name is Aaron Enright.

I want to be your Creative Director.


I specialize delivering experiences that inspire, evoke emotion, and motivate to action.


Your job post got me fired-up (in a good way).


Yes, we are a great fit, but I also believe that I'll bring added value to the Under Armour team. Please see below. 


After you've explored this page, please take a look at my work, as well as some kudos.

Why Under Armour?

Why Under Armour?

Why Under Armour?

Are you kidding me? Why not Under Armour?


First of all, Under Armour is awesome. Also, we align well. And among other things, we both believe in empowering people, improving lives, and kicking status in the quo.


I need to work with people who are passionate about making a meaningful impact. 

Why Under Armour?

Why Under Armour?

I’m looking to work for a company that puts emphasis on its people, values creative, values brand, and builds relationships.


I need to be a part of a team that believes in who they are, what they do, and why they do it. Under Armour is the team I’m looking for.


And based on your job post, I’m who you are looking for.   

Why me?

I'm glad you asked. 


I'm an intuitive and empathetic leader, problem solver, creative director, strategist, designer, and creative thinker. I'm a pro-active, proven natural leader who leads by example.


I work to build up, nurture, and inspire.


I think differently. This ability enables me to identify, approach, and solve problems in unique, fresh, and meaningful ways that matter and make an impact. I believe in the power of ideas, true collaboration, and the strength of people.  


I specialize in leading and collaborating with individuals and teams to develop, express, and communicate the heart and soul of the brand – resulting in powerful, human-centered experiences that deliver real brand value and make true connections.


I have extensive experience leading, providing creative direction, ideating, concepting, creating, collaborating, and executing work that’s thoughtful, sophisticated, dynamic, concept-led, and memorable.

Intentionally human.

I work to deliver experiences that: 


  • are diverse, inclusive, and thought-provoking
  • tell a story and take the audience on a journey
  • build brand awareness and brand loyalty
  • convert viewers into brand enthusiasts
  • drive the “reasons to believe”
  • produce results


I always keep the reasons to believe (emotional benefits) top of mind.


I will help Under Armour bring their mission and story to life by taking an empathetic “reasons to believe” approach that will enable us to relate to and connect with the audience in ways that differentiate Under Armour.


I call it H2H (human-to-human). We are all looking for the emotional benefits we receive from a product, service, and/or experience.


I will help Under Armour deliver seamless end-to-end brand experiences through, collaboration, strategy, storytelling, and purposeful design that engages people and motivates them to action.


I will help Under Armour create clarity, build brand awareness, and get people curious about how using Under Armour will make a positive difference in their lives. 



My vast experience includes brand awareness, product awareness/launch campaigns (and other brand/company initiatives), as well as countless one-to-one, one-to-few, and one-to-many integrated marketing campaigns targeting the retail, logistics, manufacturing, and digital transformation. I’ve also delivered numerous campaigns around Omni-Channel. 


I possess a rare combination of leadership qualities, creativeness, strategic thinking, and talent. I solve problems holistically and envision the big-picture, while also being detail-oriented. 


I will help Under Armour drive the brand’s digital creative direction, and continually elevate, and explore the edges of brand expression to memorably impact culture. I have a vast amount of experience, and an exceptionally high standard of brand design practice.


I have deep experience translating brand and product strategies into impactful content and purposeful experiences through work that creates emotional connections with consumers.


I can boil down complex product facts/abilities to define a simple value proposition.


I will lead creative efforts and collaborate to develop the creative design and execution of Under Armour's visual communications across the organization's internal and external facing marketing and brand objectives.


I collaborate across all teams and disciplines to make ideas and visions a reality, resulting in exceptional brand experiences and interactions.


I choose courage over comfort, clarity over ambiguity, boldness over unadventurous, and growth over complacency.



I have a unique blend of creative vision and business sense.


I have an entrepreneurial spirit. This mindset enables me to identify opportunities and solve problems in unexpected ways that many people may overlook.


My 7.5 years experience working in supply chain software (SaaS) marketing will be beneficial to Under Armour as well. 


I will help Under Armour get results.

Brand and brand systems

Brand and brand systems are also specialties of mine.


I will collaborate to provide Under Armour's internal teams with design standards, tools, and guidance on communicating corporate image, solutions, branding, and identity with consistency and quality across mediums.


I will collaborate to build and design models that are adaptable, agile, scalable, extendable, and repeatable.


I will streamline production and workflows enabling creative teams to deliver efficiently and effectively, while ensuring assets are on-brand and well designed.


I created and developed the Blue Yonder Global Brand System and the rebranded JDA Global Brand System.


I led the evolution of Blue Yonder and JDA Software design and vision for all creative expressions of the brand.


I have also created and collaborated to develop numerous brands from the ground up.

Leadership

I believe people are the heart and soul of every brand/company.


Leadership is a mindset. Being a leader is not something a person does, it's who they are. What a person values, how they think, behave, support, and interact is what separates leaders from bosses.


I set others up for success, jump in and roll up my sleeves, and get out of my team’s way when needed :-) 


I work to help build and sustain a healthy culture where people can be successful and thrive. People need to know they are valued and appreciated as individuals. They need to feel empowered and safe to express themselves, share their ideas, talents, and concerns.


They need to feel safe to experiment and make mistakes. And they need to know that being open with candid, respectful, and constructive feedback, is a two-way street. These beliefs shape my leadership approach. 

I’m not afraid to:

  • Be myself
  • Let others be themselves
  • Be open
  • Elevate others
  • Listen
  • Ask questions
  • Learn
  • Help others grow 
  • Change my mind
  • Admit when I’m wrong 
  • Admit what I don’t know (but will find out)
  • Seek out experts 
  • Ask for help
  • Explore possibilities 
  • Experiment 
  • Be bold
  • Jump in to help and get my hands dirty
  • Kick status in the quo

My goals

My goals

My goals

  • I want to inspire, encourage, and motivate myself and others to be better, push the boundaries, think bigger, and achieve more–while having some fun along the way. 


  • I want to continue to grow and learn as a leader and a creative, while helping others do the same.


  • I want to help create breakthrough work that matters.


  • I want to help create and sustain a healthy culture where people can be successful and thrive.

My goals

My goals

Instead of just telling people my ethos, I believe in showing them. Showing proves something. I live my values, and show them through collaboration, work, action, and leadership.

I’d appreciate the opportunity to show you.


Thank you for your time and consideration.
