Experience

Pixel & Tonic - Accessibility Engineer (2021-Present)

I'm the lead Accessibility Engineer working on Craft CMS . My role includes:

  • Creating an internal system for tracking and remediating pre-existing accessibility violations.
  • Using screen readers, automated testing tools, and browser extensions to test for accessibility issues, and using audit results to create an Accessibility Conformance Report.
  • Building prototypes to test and develop more accessibile components.
  • Remediating parts of the Craft control panel for accessibility/usability.

WLCR - Front End Developer (2018-2020)

At WLCR, I focused primarily on custom Shopify theme development (with some custom WordPress dev sprinkled in ). My role included:

  • Building custom, responsive themes on the Shopify platform. A highlight was serving as the lead dev on the new Kit Undergarments theme build, and developing this accessible custom bra fitting quiz .
  • Collaborating on and contributing to custom codebases and documentation; this includes work on build processes, starter themes, testing suites, team knowledgebases, etc.
  • Leading initiatives to move accessibility further to the left by holding short talks on a11y topics, providing feedback on proposed designs, and educating clients.
