Jenn Steinhardt

I’m a CTS-D certified AV professional, avid learner, content creator, and hiker. I’m also a sociologist, baker, and all-around nerd. I volunteer on the AVIXA Diversity Council and am currently the 2024 Council Chair.

My official title is Design Engineer with AVI-SPL, but you may also know me as NerdyGirlAV on social media. All opinions are my own.
