Grounded in Practice. Informed by Experience.

Hi, I'm Denis (he/him), and I help people and businesses create technology that works for all kinds of minds.

This work is both my job and my passion

I'm multiply neurodivergent (Autistic and ADHD) and dynamically disabled. Getting diagnosed later in life showed me something important.

Throughout my 20+ year career in UX and design, I realized I had been adapting things to work better for my brain.

I was turning problems into smooth experiences and building systems that work for different ways of thinking and looking at things.

Access for All Minds exists because the best solutions often come from lived experience.

Leave No Mind Behind

This isn't about quick fixes or checking boxes. Creating products that include everyone takes partnership, patience, and learning that never stops.

Sometimes we need to unlearn what we think we know about how people think and work.

Every product you create touches minds that work differently.

Access for All Minds helps make sure that when your business puts technology into the world, you're designing for all kinds of minds from the start.

I do this by guide teams to think in new ways, make accessibility part of everyday work, and build systems where everyone can succeed.

The goal isn't perfection. It's all about progress, understanding, and leaving no mind behind.

What 20+ years of lived experience brings to your team

My career spans startups, enterprise teams, and standards organizations. What makes my perspective unique is navigating this industry as a multiply neurodivergent person, turning workarounds into design insights.

This translates into:

I catch problems early I spot barriers in design and planning before they become expensive to fix.

I find real solutions I turn my workarounds into design patterns your whole team can use.

I work with everyone I help designers, developers, PMs, and leaders make accessibility part of how they already work.
