Richard
Childress Racing has named Robin Johnson as Vice President of Business
Development, overseeing sponsorship sales and partnership expansion, effective
immediately.
Johnson brings more than 20 years of
combined legal and business development leadership to the multi-championship
NASCAR team. He most recently served as the General Counsel for the S.C. State
Treasurer's Office. Prior to that position, the South Carolina native served in
similar business development roles at Front Row Motorsports and Roush Fenway
Racing, where he helped build what was arguably one of the most respected
sponsorship bases in professional sports during his tenure.
"We are very happy to have
Robin join our team because he brings a great deal of knowledge and experience
to our organization," said Torrey Galida, President of RCR. "We are
confident he will be a major contributor to our mission in keeping RCR as one
of NASCAR's premier racing teams, both on the track and in the
marketplace."
Johnson is an honor graduate of The
Citadel (class of 1986) earning his B.S. degree in business administration. He
is also an honor graduate of the University of South Carolina School of Law and
is licensed in South Carolina and New York.
"I have always admired Richard
Childress and his organization, and have marveled at how his team members,
business associates and partners are genuinely considered as family,"
Johnson said. "I'm truly honored and look forward to introducing new partners
to the RCR family."
