//  Ad 2 Tampa Bay  //  Student ADDY Chair 2008-2009
Just after graduation I was recruited to serve as the Student ADDY Chair on the board for Ad 2 Tampa Bay. An experience I won't soon forget, serving on the board was hard work that really paid off. I put on the 2008 Campus Road Show last fall where I went and spoke to design students at all of the local colleges in the Tampa Bay area. The goal of the Campus Road Show was to generate awareness about the Student ADDYs and increase Ad 2 membership. And I am happy to annouce that the number of student ADDY entries increased by 40% in 2008! My presentation and networking skills were put to the test and I learned a ton of valuable information while serving in this position.
