What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values accessibility and promotes inclusive design, where I can contribute to meaningful projects and continue to grow my expertise.

I am an Accessibility Testing Specialist with 4 years of experience at Deloitte, where I have honed my skills in evaluating web applications and software for compliance with accessibility standards such as WCAG 2.1 and 2.2, and ADA. My role involves collaborating with developers, UX designers, and project managers to integrate accessibility best practices into project lifecycles, ensuring that our products are usable for individuals with disabilities.

Throughout my career, I have led training sessions and workshops on accessibility standards and testing methods, enhancing team proficiency and awareness. I have hands-on experience testing web and mobile applications using various assistive technologies, including screen readers like JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver. My ability to produce detailed reports and actionable recommendations has been instrumental in improving user experience and compliance across projects.

As an Accessibility Team Lead, I analyze business requirements, implement testing strategies, and provide guidance to cross-functional teams. My commitment to fostering an inclusive digital environment drives my passion for accessibility, and I am always eager to learn new technologies that support business needs.
