Aaron Henry

Bio:

With more than 15 years of experience as a media buyer and digital strategist, Aaron Henry has spent his career helping brands earn meaningful, lasting relationships with real people. He is the Founder and President of Foundry512, an award-winning, independent advertising agency known for combining creative excellence with rigorous strategic thinking.

Under Aaron’s leadership, Foundry512 has partnered with iconic and fast-growing brands including Jägermeister, Foursquare, and Forbes, delivering work that spans digital, traditional, and emerging channels. His perspective on the evolving advertising landscape has also made him a trusted industry voice, serving as a contributor and judge for AdAge, AdWeek, and The Telly Awards.

Aaron leads a team of talented creatives and strategists focused on forging lifelong—and often multi-generational—connections between brands and the people who choose them. His philosophy is rooted in the belief that the traditional company-consumer model is broken. People don’t form relationships with companies; they form relationships with brands they feel emotionally connected to. These connections are often made in seconds, but when earned authentically, they can last a lifetime.

Aaron believes brands must go beyond relevance or simple intent-based marketing. True growth comes from finding the right mental and emotional whitespace—where interaction turns into connection, and connection turns into loyalty. Through thoughtful strategy and standout creative, Aaron and his team don’t just create campaigns; they help brands build enduring relationships that drive lasting growth.
