Jordan Holmes

Audio Technician | Novatech Creative Event Technology

I am originally from Murray Bridge, South Australia, where my love affair with music began. Growing up, I was deeply involved in our local music scene, jamming with friends in youth programs and playing in the our community theatre company band. Teaching guitar and collaborating on music projects with my high school peers further fuelled my passion.

After earning my Bachelor of Music with a focus on Sonic Arts, I was eager to dive into the world of audio technology. This led me to join the team at Novatech Creative Event Technology where I have spent the last three years contributing to a wide array of projects. From music festivals like Spin Off and Harvest Rock to corporate events and Fringe shows, I have had the opportunity to work on diverse and exciting productions. Additionally, I have been involved in creating immersive installations such as Light Cycles and Resonate at the Botanic Gardens.

Currently, I am focused on broadening my skill set by delving into the video and lighting aspects of event production. Outside of work, I continue to nurture my musical talents, writing and performing whenever I can.

One of the most fulfilling aspects of my job is seeing events come to life using cutting-edge technology. Despite the long hours, the sense of camaraderie among my colleagues makes it all worthwhile.

A career highlight for me has been working on music festivals where I have had the opportunity to soak in the vibrant atmosphere and contribute to attendees’ unforgettable experiences.

In a field often dominated by men, I have faced challenges but been fortunate to have supportive mentors who have helped me navigate my path. To any woman considering a career in the entertainment industry I would say: embrace every opportunity, stay true to your passion, and never give up. Surround yourself with people who believe in you, and you will find yourself achieving remarkable things.
