Early in my career, I had the privilege of working at Penn State University, where I gained a deep understanding of the importance of building websites that are accessible to all users.  That experience helped me develop a strong commitment to inclusivity and a desire to ensure that every website and digital product I work on is usable and accessible to everyone. Throughout my career, I have remained a passionate advocate for accessibility and have made it my mission to train developers and designers to incorporate accessibility practices into their work.
