Greetings! I support enterprise AV infrastructure & event productions for Charter Communications.  With a side of telecom.  I completely love my job as it affords the opportunity to thoroughly explore the depths of an ever-changing technological environment.  I can't believe I get paid to do this.   I gripped for a few years, then earned a BA in Mass Comm from Bama, a CTS, chipping away at CCNP collab, and lately have been working with some video creative types.  My roots are in car audio and even though I'm far from 16, it's still one of my favorite subjects.  I have a thing for bicycles too.    

In my role with AVIXA standards and content teams I provide technical advisement and strategic leadership. This primarily includes standards publications and the Exam Guide books. My interests span the broad spectrum of AV/IT technologies and systems our industry provides.  Prior to taking a staff role with AVIXA I worked supporting AV/IT solutions for both public and private education as a "Technology Manager" (roles including repair, installation, design and project management) as well as a longtime volunteer for AVIXA education and standards programs.
