The 2024 Media Alliance of Houston Gala brought us this year's Star Awards winners on April 18, 2024, at the Royal Sonesta Houston Galleria.
Kelley Rodriguez with Love Advertising is the 2024 Silver Star Honoree.
This year, the happy hour, dinner, and after-party took place in a "tropical oasis setting" and benefitted the MAH scholarships while supporting the community through the DREAM fund.
Congratulations to the 2024 Media Alliance of Houston Star Awards recipients!
