Building on more than 30 years in the AV business solution design, business development and technology adoption projects, with the change efforts and collaborative benefits arising from them, are the disciplines I enjoy most, seeking to create value through knowhow, innovation and consulting services, rather than product.

As AVIXA's manager of editorial content, I bring to the role fifteen years of marketing experience and ten working predominantly in editorial and video content. I've spent many years in the entertainment industry working for Nickelodeon, Lucasfilm, Disney, and even a small theater in the heart of Florence, Italy. I love great stories and finding the right way to tell them. I am also a stop-motion animation aficionado who makes puppets and writes books. And if you have a food-related AV story, I'd love to hear it!

Senior Director of Development for AVIXA in EMEA with over 20 years experience in AV and IT industries. Started off in sound engineering in the late 90s then pursued a career in IT. After working in web development I returned to AV and have not looked back!

I look forward to seeing many of those examples on the Xchange!
