Meet Marco Barron… SDSU Ad Club President, Ad 2 Communications Board Member, Nor Cal native, and future Advertising Exec.
After joining Ad 2 this past summer, Marco quickly got involved in the Communications committee and he has become a staple at Ad 2 events since. Marco says, “The best thing about Ad 2 is the networking, people, and food at meetings” =)

Public Service continues their work with the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF). The non-profit is in the midst of rebranding and Ad 2 is working closely to coordinate their new look with a consistent and comprehensive interactive strategy.
At the heart of the campaign is incorporating existing social networks into a redesigned CAF website to better connect donors, athletes, and grant recipients around the group’s events.
CAF is currently looking for a marketing/community manager intern to help with the transition. For more information on the internship or Ad 2’s campaign, please contact Tobin Nageotte or Anthony Miller.

If you’re thinking about getting more involved in the club, listen to Brittany when she says, “I wanted to be more involved with the club and get to know everyone better. It has been a lot of fun. The meetings are entertaining and I am happy to be a part of the programs committee!” So next time you’re mingling around an Ad 2 event, be sure to introduce yourself and say thanks… she probably planned it =) !!
