Where signal flow
meets human connection.
12 years in corporate AV. Hands in conferencing, collaboration, and live events. Building tools the industry actually needs — starting with AVHD Lab.
Learn. Create. Connect.
Three lines of work. One through-line: making AV more accessible, more professional, and more human.

Coming soonThe Warm Room
A virtual coworking concept for AV professionals — to think, create, and problem-solve alongside people who understand the work.
In developmentBuilt by someone who’s been in every room you’ve ever wired.
Former stage performer turned AV engineer. Over a decade in corporate AV — conferencing, collaboration, hybrid events, and the unglamorous magic of making technology invisible to the people using it. AVHD is the creative ecosystem I built when I ran out of tools that understood both the craft and the culture.
“I built this because I kept Googling the same AV concepts over and over — and I knew other pros were doing the same thing.”
— Cathy Richards-Ingram, Founder, AVHD
Master AV.
Beautifully.
The AV industry doesn’t have a Google-it problem. It has a structure problem. AVHD Lab fixes that.
