Justin Burke

Founder · Creator Networks & Campus Partnerships

Justin brings an extensive network of creators, athletes, talent managers, and agency partners to After Class. His career has focused on building those relationships and turning them into opportunities that make sense for the people involved.

At Cameo, Justin worked across talent acquisition, talent relations, and talent marketing as a Senior Talent Executive. He built relationships across entertainment, sports, and the creator economy, developing the talent network and eye for emerging voices that now inform After Class’s approach to campus recruitment.

At Passes, he led Creator Acquisition and Agency Partnerships, with experience recruiting college lifestyle creators and developing partnerships with athletes and major NIL collectives. His work included securing major NIL partnerships involving Livvy Dunne and college collectives, bringing experience with both individual talent and groups of athletes to After Class.

As founder and CEO of Neon The Agency, Justin helps creators build revenue streams and manages the strategy and operations behind their businesses. Neon helped talent generate more than $2.3 million in creator payouts in its first year. That hands-on experience informs how After Class approaches communication, expectations, and the work required to support a partnership beyond the initial introduction.

A University of Nevada, Reno alumnus with a focus on entertainment and sports marketing, Justin is bringing these relationships and experiences together to connect campus communities with relevant brand opportunities.

Why we’re building it.

College is full of people who create culture: students making content, athletes building a following, and organizations bringing everyone together. After Class is being built to connect those communities with brands that want to work with them.

A great campus partnership can start with one creator, one team, or one chapter. Finding the right people, and getting the opportunity in front of them, should be easier.

After Class brings students and organizations into one network, organized around their schools, interests, and the opportunities they want. Brands tell us who they want to reach and what they want to accomplish. We help connect the two sides.

Our goal is to make campus opportunities easier to discover, with clear expectations and a fit that makes sense for everyone involved.

THE NETWORK

More connections. More possibilities.

After Class brings together our experience in creator partnerships, college communities, and brand collaboration. We’re growing the network campus by campus, connecting students and organizations with opportunities that fit their interests, talents, and communities.
