Ad 2 Roanoke has had an incredible year! Our board members have volunteered countless hours to building a vibrant community for young professionals in the marketing and advertising industry, creating opportunities to connect, grow, and support one another right here in our city.

This past weekend, those efforts were recognized on a national stage. We proudly entered the AAF National Ovation Awards, competing alongside Ad 2 clubs from across the country, and we're thrilled to share that Ad 2 Roanoke earned 1st Place in Membership Development & Communications! 🏆🎉

Our club received the award at the ADMERICA conference on Saturday, and our team couldn't be more excited. This recognition celebrates the passion, creativity, and commitment of our board members and members who continue to make our club stronger every year.

We're proud to say that Ad 2 Roanoke is now an award-winning club — and we're just getting started.✨

Last week, our Ad 2 Roanoke club hosted a webinar in partnership with Dr. Shilpa Rao, professor at Virginia Tech, focused on how marketers can use today’s AI tools to strengthen and build their campaigns. It was a fantastic session, and we truly enjoyed learning from and connecting with Dr. Rao. Thank you to everyone who attended!

Meet Our New Education Chair, Vishvesh Pandya! 🎉

Vishy is originally from Ahmedabad, India’s first UNESCO World Heritage City. He is a graphic designer currently living in Salem and working in Christiansburg. He enjoys transforming ideas into clean, thoughtful visual designs and is known for his attention to detail, sometimes spending a little extra time adjusting elements by just a few pixels or searching for the perfect color match.

Outside of work, Vishy spends his time watching anime, reading across a variety of topics, and occasionally picking up new skills just for the fun of it. He also values connecting with people, learning about different cultures, and exploring what inspires creativity in others.

We’re so excited to have him on board! Please join us in giving Vishy a warm welcome to the team.
