Lewis team members across our three offices recently attended the American Advertising Federation Nashville, AAF Birmingham, and AAF Mobile Bay ADDY's. We can't say it enough, but we are incredibly proud of the people behind the work. Without the team's talent, strategy, and dedication, the end result would not be as beautiful, effective, and impactful as it is. Across our three offices, Lewis brought home 30 ADDY's, including Best of Show, Best of Interactive, and three individual honors—Andy Cargile for Production Artist of the Year, Mary Bradley Rea for Media Planner of the Year, and Blake Wingard for Student Intern of the Year. Not to mention, our amazing Creative Intern, Lainey Holland, earned Gold and Silver for her campaign work. These awards, and the work itself, are a reflection of the people who pour their passion into everything we do, and we are grateful! #DoSomethingGreat #EmployeeSpotlight #employeeappreciation #addys #advertisingawards
