Trainings
Interactive learning that helps your team spot and remove access barriers for people who think differently, using real examples from your own work.
Build real understanding, not just awareness
I deliver engaging, practical sessions that help teams understand cognitive accessibility from the inside out.
- Shift how your team thinks about and builds for cognitive diversity
- Connect people with the human side of accessibility
- Create safe spaces to learn through practice
- Lectures about compliance
- Generic awareness sessions that don't stick
- Overwhelming lists without practical next steps
Two ways to learn together
Presentations
Ready-to-deliver insights
Choose from my existing talks that blend lived experience, research, and practical application.
Each presentation includes real examples, clear takeaways, and time for questions.
- Lunch-and-learns
- Team meetings
- Awareness initiatives
Typically 45-60 minutes
Workshops
Designed for your context
I'll start by understanding your team, products, and specific challenges.
Then I'll create an interactive session tailored to your needs, using your actual products as examples when possible.
Typically 2 hours (include breaks)

What makes these sessions different
Stories that stick
- I share real experiences, including my own, to help ideas make sense.
- When people connect with the human side, it changes how they think and act.
- Stories help concepts stick better than just facts and rules.
Interactive by design
- Even in presentations, I include time for thinking, talking, and trying things out.
- Workshops include hands-on activities using your actual products.
- You learn by doing, not just listening.
Safety first
- I create spaces where people can ask questions without worry.
- You can share what you're unsure about and learn without being judged.
- Making mistakes in training means fewer barriers in your real products.
