What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values inclusivity, offers growth opportunities, and allows me to utilize my accessibility testing skills.

I am a dedicated Accessibility Tester with over 2.5 years of experience in ensuring that web applications are accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. My expertise lies in utilizing tools such as NVDA, Talkback, and Voiceover for comprehensive accessibility testing. I am well-versed in WCAG 2.1 and 2.2 guidelines, as well as Section 508 standards, which guide my approach to creating inclusive digital experiences.

Throughout my career, I have successfully contributed to projects like ESchool/College Management and Shop On Click, where I was responsible for understanding client requirements, conducting accessibility tests, and providing detailed reports on findings. My technical background includes proficiency in HTML, CSS, and basic knowledge of Selenium, which enhances my ability to identify and document accessibility issues effectively.

I am passionate about building user-friendly digital experiences and am committed to continuous learning and improvement in the field of accessibility testing. I believe that everyone deserves equal access to information and services online, and I strive to make that a reality through my work.
