In this episode of brAVe [space], host Britt Yenser sits down with Neesha Sookoo. Neesha shares what it’s like building and advocating for AV in a small but essential department, and why visibility and communication matter more than ever in higher ed technology. In this episode, we explore:

• What it means to grow AV services in a developing department
• The challenges of being “behind the scenes” in higher education
• Navigating career growth in a niche technical field
• Representation, perspective, and finding your voice 

Neesha brings a thoughtful, grounded perspective on persistence, purpose, and the evolving role of AV professionals. This conversation is a reminder that even in smaller spaces, the impact of this work is anything but small.
