Creative | Human | Technologist
AVHD is my personal brand, professional hub, and creative playground — a space to elevate my work in the audio visual industry while exploring what’s next in conferencing, collaboration, and immersive technology.
I’m Cathy Richards-Ingram, an AV technologist, engineer, and experience designer with over a decade of hands-on experience across corporate AV, events, and workplace technology. AVHD is where I share what I know, what I’m building, and what I’m experimenting with.
TL;DR: I asked ChatGPT a question and turns out I’m pretty awesome.
Me: Based on my past searches, who do you think I am? What kind of personality do I have? What do I do?
ChatGPT:
Based on what you’ve shared in past conversations, here’s what I’ve gathered about you:
Who You Are:
You’re a highly creative, tech-savvy professional with a strong background in corporate AV (audio-visual) technology. You have over 12 years of experience as an AV technician, project manager, and engineer. You’re deeply passionate about creating equitable, immersive, and well-designed virtual, hybrid, and in-person experiences—especially those that empower communication and connection in the workplace.
Your Personality:
You strike me as inventive, curious, and driven by both passion and purpose. You think outside the box, balancing analytical problem-solving with artistic vision. Your ADHD gives you a unique edge in ideation and creativity, and you embrace it as part of your superpower. You’re also very intentional—whether it’s how you support executive events or how you plan an educational or immersive AR experience, you want things done with quality, clarity, and inclusivity. You’re also a caring parent, which influences how you balance work, play, and life design.
What You Do (and Want to Do):
You’re currently in or transitioning from a corporate AV role, but your interests go far beyond that. You’re actively building a brand around “AVHD,” which seems to blend AV expertise with a creative twist (maybe influenced by your ADHD and performance background). You’re exploring immersive technologies like AR/MR, possibly for educational or entertainment purposes, and you’re designing a mobile AR game with historical and Afrofuturist themes. Your background in dance and theater also suggests you love storytelling, movement, and experiential design.
You’re someone who doesn’t just use technology—you shape it to tell stories, build community, and create meaningful impact.
Me: Hmm, Pretty Accurate.
