About me
About my accessibility journey
Let me tell you a bit about me and my journey into the world of accessibility. When I first started out, I honestly didn’t know much about accessibility. I was given the daunting task of making our website compliant, armed only with a thick report from an accessibility vendor.
Yikes!
Does this sound familiar?
You start researching online, hoping to find some helpful information, and what do you come across?
- outdated examples
- information scattered all over the place
- no alternative options
- and to top it off, it’s just plain boring!

Why create Accessibility Made Easy?
Well, it all came from a desire to help others facing the same challenges. My goal was simple: provide clear and concise guidance with examples that actually relate to the common elements we see on websites today.
As I delved deeper into the world of accessibility, I began to realize something incredible – it’s all about increasing inclusivity. The more you learn about making a website inclusive, the more you start to see the world through someone else’s perspective. It’s a beautiful thing.
And now, it’s your turn! You have the opportunity to reach a broader audience, unlock the benefits of accessibility, and truly make a positive difference. So, dive in, learn, and let’s make the digital world a more inclusive and welcoming place for everyone!
