- 📩 Need to get ahold of me? Discord is probably the fastest (iykyk), or DM on Mastadon!
- 🔭 I created ember-a11y-refocus so Ember.js would have a solid accessible routing solution, and led other efforts to make the framework more accessible by default and become the most accessible JavaScript framework.
- 🌱 I’m am the author of Continuous Accessibility and like to talk/write/think about the future of accessibility.
- 😎 I created and continue to improve the Accessibility Automation Tracker.
- ⚡ Fun fact: I served in the U.S. Navy for six years as a Cryptologic Technician (Interpretive). I am a decorated, disabled military veteran (5 medals, 2 commendations).
