VP Sales & Marketing, Aavara | AVIXA Foundation BoD | AVIXA Women's Council Taiwan Chair, Aavara Innovation Corp.
Started my career in the insurance industry, specifically Workers comp. Eleven years ago I answered a call from an old friend I went to grade school with and he asked me to come help him manage his broadcast cabling company. That old friend is Carl Craver and the company is Viper Cabling Inc. WE handle everything from small voice and data /AV installs to large broadcast projects. I took over Carl's spot on the ITS Council and have been volunteering ever since 2012. I am excited to have been recently elected as the ITS Council chair. As the new Chair I hope to recruit new members that would like to be a part of our next charity project.
A CTS with more than 20 years in Pro AV.With credentials including ISO 27001 Practitioner, CompTIA Security+, AVIXA CTS, and service as a member of the AVIXA Standards Steering Committee, I bring a multidisciplinary perspective that spans security governance, systems engineering, AV risk, and operational resilience. I understand AI as a socio‑technical system, where risks extend across architecture, data flows, user behaviour, and integrated AV/UC environments.
i've led the design and optimisation of secure collaboration environments — from Microsoft Teams to enterprise meeting rooms and hybrid working platforms — supporting high‑stakes spaces such as Board meetings, AGMs, and multi‑site collaboration.
I am now expanding my leadership into AI governance and responsible technology, developing capability in ISO/IEC 42001 (AIMS) and the NIST AI RMF to help organisations operationalise AI safely, ethically, and at scale
