Happy birthday, Governor Sandy!

Please join us in wishing a very Happy Birthday to AAF District 10 Governor, Austin Sandy! 🎂

Austin’s guidance is rooted in deep experience– from helping build AAF East Texas, to consecutively serving as Membership Chair, Programs Chair, President, Immediate Past President, and Awards Chair. At that point, there was no stopping him. Austin moved into District 10 leadership as Programs Chair, Social Media Chair, 2nd & 1st Lt. Governors, and now Governor of D10, serving clubs across Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Arkansas.

His vision, creativity, and passion for advocacy and connection have shaped the success of our district and the communities we serve. Austin’s commitment to uplifting others and advancing the advertising industry reminds us what true leadership looks like.

We’re deeply grateful for all that you do, Austin — for your time, your energy, and your unwavering dedication to the AAF mission. Here’s to another year of leadership and inspiration! 🎉

Discover AAF at our happy hour! Meet our members & connect with pros in advertising, marketing, PR, & communications.

Bring a friend for some AAF networking, great wine, & live music. Your first two glasses are on us! WE'LL SEE YOU THERE! 🍷
