Websites should be accessible to all visitors.

All audiences, no matter their disability, should have equal access to the content on your site. That’s why your content must comply with the latest accessibility guidelines.

I have nearly ten years of research and implementing website accessibility best practices for websites and web applications while educating employees on how to make their digital content compliant. As an independent accessibility consultant, I can:

• Explain the importance of digital media accessibility to key stakeholders

• Educate your employees on their role with digital media accessibility

• Create VPAT and ACR reports for compliance evaluations

• Remediate PDF files using Adobe Acrobat and FoxIt Pro alongside NVDA to ensure full compliance

I Understand web accessibility standards.

WCAG 2.1 I have experience making websites compliant with WCAG 2.1 standards and remediating code and content to address violations of the guidelines by making navigation usable via a keyboard, adding image descriptions, increasing the font size, adding captions and transcriptions for videos, and increasing color contrast.

Section 508 Having worked on government websites for nearly a decade, my experience with Section 508 government-wide IT accessibility guidelines is critical in ensuring all citizens have equal access to publicly funded information. To that end, I have used Monsido, SiteImprove, and Ally, site-wide scanning software that evaluates websites and flags accessibility, usability, and quality assurance issues. I can help your business evaluate and implement a similar accessibility strategy custom-suited to your needs.

I Train content contributors on accessibility.

It is a favorite part of my job to train content creators on best practices for accessibility compliance. I have created online courses for website accessibility training, created software documentation for making digital files accessible, provided Zoom-based monthly training, and established online resources to educate employees on making the best web content accessible.
