How did you get into accessibility?

I got into accessibility by helping Hassell Inclusion shape its product set, and realised that accessibility is not a niche issue – we will all need it at some point in our lives, either permanently or due to particular situations we are in.

What’s the one thing you’ve done in accessibility you’re most proud of?

What I am most proud of is helping one marketing agency change its mindset to accessibility. Since they communicate with over 12 million people a year, getting this right means that nearly 3 million people will be better served.
