In Episode 314, Jessica Isenhour, AKA the one and only “AV Barbie,” joins the show to talk all things event production, social media networking in the event industry, helping younger technicians grow in the industry, and more. This episode is sponsored by Allen & Heath and RCF.

Jessica is a freelance audio visual technician for corporate and live events and mentor to the next generation of AV leaders. As co-owner of the Growth and Development Network, she’s passionate about entrepreneurial initiatives, including mentorship gatherings, resume review sessions, and one-on-one meetings that help empower young technicians, especially fellow women in AV, to become better business owners and entrepreneurial leaders.

She co-owns her business, CJMedia, alongside her husband and fellow AV technician Caleb Isenhour. When they aren’t working live events as a dynamic duo, Jessica, as a singer-songwriter and award-winning lyricist, often finds herself in the studio, working on new music within the pop genre or enjoying the diverse array of local food and entertainment options that her hometown of Orlando has to offer.
