Accessibility Statement
I am committed to make my website easy for people with and without disabilities to use. Currently I am working to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at level AA or better. And I continuously work on accessibility improvements.
Incorporating accessibility leads to intuitive design solutions that benefit all users.
🤔 Why Accessibility?
As Apple states, "accessibility is a human right." Incorporating accessibility measures is the ethical and responsible choice in order to provide an equal and inclusive experience for all.
🤝 My Mission
As a UX designer who struggled with dyslexia, I am determined to advocate for neurodivergent needs in the digital product space. My goal is to not only meet accessibility guidelines, but to design solutions that actually work for individuals with disabilities.
