Pavan Kolli
@pavankolli
Accessibility Analyst specializing in WCAG, assistive tech, and VPAT compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Accessibility Analyst focused on making websites and applications usable for everyone. I work with international accessibility standards, including WCAG 2.0, WCAG 2.1, and ARIA specifications from the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative.
In my recent role at Google, I performed accessibility criteria testing, reviewed and suggested improvements for website designs, and helped bring new team members up to speed. I’ve also delivered presentations on accessibility topics such as color blindness, and I perform checks on issues created previously.
Previously at U.S. Bank as a UX Accessibility Architect and at Level access as an Accessibility Consultant, I reviewed deliverables, monitored accessibility defects, and translated requirements into experience architectures with business analysts, developers, accessibility consultants, testers, product owners, and compliance specialists. I’ve supported disabled users directly, used tools like JAWS, NVDA, Dragon, ZoomText, and Switch Control, analyzed accessibility test data for Section 508 support via VPAT, and provided accessibility training so teams understand their role and responsibility in building accessible products.
