We’re the Hub for All People and Things AV We are the community for the creative professionals who use technology to create integrated experiences. AVIXA is the Audiovisual and Integrated Experience Association, producer of InfoComm trade shows around the world, co-owner of Integrated Systems Europe, and the international trade association representing the audiovisual industry.

Integrate is Australia’s premier annual AV and Integration trade show, held this year at ICC Sydney from 2-4 September. This event is a hub of activity for local and global brands to showcase solutions and products to a diverse audience of AV professionals, integrators, technicians and corporate end-users. Beyond product showcases, Integrate facilitates valuable connections between manufacturers, qualified buyers and distributors. The show also features the nation’s leading AV education platform designed to help business harness the latest AV innovations to create immersive, meaningful experiences.

A marketing professional and 20-year AV industry veteran, I am a proud CTS holder and enthusiastic #AVfoodie who is passionate about innovative technologies, design, and all things AV. I look forward to connecting with you here on Xchange and invite you to join me on LinkedIn as well.  To reach me, please message me on LinkedIn, as I am unable to reply to conversations here. 

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!
