Digital Accessibility Manager at QuaverEd, making its interactive Creatives fully accessible and advancing accessibility across curricula.

United States
Message

At QuaverEd, I guide digital accessibility across curricula, platforms, and resources, helping teams make products usable by people with disabilities. I bring accessibility standards into the product lifecycle and oversee remediation.

I directed PDF remediation projects for English and Spanish worksheets across three curricula, and achieved approximately 85% accessibility conformance for curriculum webpages outside core lesson content. QuaverEd’s interactive music applications, called Creatives, are now fully accessible.

As Accessibility Auditing Team Lead and Accessibility Tester at QuaverEd, I evaluated digital products against WCAG, Section 508, and EN 301 549. I developed PDF tagging methods, authored ACRs/VPATs, and tested with assistive technologies including JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver.

My earlier work includes developing web applications as a freelance Web Developer and owning Coffee Talk, where I designed the shop experience and seasonal menu. I hold CPWA, WAS, and CPACC credentials, along with JAWS and NVDA certifications.
