Where I'm
Speaking

In this keynote, I discuss how to challenge ableist biases, use inclusive language, and be an active ally. In this talk I discussed seeking out disabled perspectives and ensuring policies in schools and workplaces are formed to support disability rights. Attendees came away with a framework to reform disability as a culture.

In this workshop, I demonstrate how disabled people, as technological innovators, have transformed the world by adapting to environments that weren’t built for them. I highlight how accessibility benefits everyone, from innovations like bicycles to smartphones. The presentation outlines five key strategies to enhance disability inclusion in any organization, focusing on universal design, DEI strategies, and anti-ableism to create a world that not only accommodates but fully welcomes disability.

In this session, I provided a student’s perspective on accessibility, focusing on the importance of Universal Design for Learning. I discuss how faculty can account for the diverse range of skills, learning styles, and identities—such as age, gender, culture, and abilities—when choosing content and strategies for online instruction.
