For more than 20 years, digital accessibility, usability and user experience have played a big part in both my professional and my personal life. Behind this is my conviction that digital accessibility is a cause always worth taking a stand for. I enjoy being active in the open-source community and at community events, because I love working together to remove barriers so that digital services work well for everyone.
