Digital Accessibility Consultant
A man seated on outdoor stone steps, smiling warmly at the camera. He has light skin, short light-brown hair, and a neatly trimmed beard. He is wearing a blue-gray button-down shirt with the sleeves rolled up.

I came to the Boston area from Houston, TX where I lived and worked throughout my career. Previously, I was Rice University’s Digital Accessibility Coordinator where I helped launch a campus-wide accessibility program and policy. I also have experience working in public libraries and universities where my passion for accessibility and Universal Design began. My background is in learning technologies, training, instructional design, and Humanities. I love coffee, cycling, and exploring outdoors.
