The AVIXA Board of Directors created the Sustainability Advisory Group in 2023 to find resources and support the Pro-AV Industry in becoming more sustainable. It is comprised of an expert group of volunteers who meet regularly to collaboratively assist both the community and AVIXA. 
    
    
  
       The mission of the AVIXA Women's Council is to provide a global community of AVIXA members and other professionals committed to supporting and empowering women who work in the technology and AV industry. If you are an AVIXA member who wants to support women in our industry — no matter who you are — you are invited to join this council. 
    
    
  
      The mission of the Live Events Council is to serve as an advisory group to AVIXA’s strategic plan, advance the interests and capabilities of live events professionals, facilitate the exchange of industry knowledge, expand professional networking opportunities, and encourage continuing education.
    
    
  
       InfoComm—it's how we connect. 
 InfoComm is the world’s most vital pro AV show. Where the unseen technology behind our modern lives is at work and at play. Transparent 3D LED screens. Mixing boards used by the biggest touring artists. And massive control rooms broadcasting sports, viral videos and more.  
 
 It’s where global brands launch new products and where you’ll tap into a vast network of extraordinary humans changing how we experience the world. From the coffee we smart brew to the concert we jam to—and all the moments in between. Lift the curtain on what’s powering connection today. And cue the lights for what’s powering it tomorrow.

       When I first started in AV, I remember hearing how AV professionals really care about the human experience, not just the tech. And it's true! I love connecting the dots to help people find the AV resources they need, building communities where people come together and being a part of such a vibrant (and welcoming) industry.  
    
    
  
       A University of Central Florida double-alum with a Master’s in Digital Media, I'm a content creator who loves bringing people together over shared interests. As AVIXA's Coordinator of Digital Content, I produce articles on a myriad of technology topics.

      Presently as Regional Director, AVIXA for India and GCC, I do aspire to support the AV and IT industry with  access to the resources that are most beneficial to the businesses and professional outcomes. 
My focus will be to bring to the AV/IT community in the region, knowledge and skill development through AVIXA Education, Certification and Training Resources. I look forward to work closely with allied associations, industry groups and professional society in the region with a similar focus. 
And my areas of interest and learning are indeed the Emerging Technologies (what we know as AI, Metaverse, Cloud, Industry 4.0, and the likes) and how they impact what we do in our professional and personal lives as Humans!
Do feel free to reach out to me.
