🔺Who do I work with? I work with corporations and organizations that are committed to inclusion and accessibility, and seek an experienced speaker and facilitator to help them achieve this goal. A few of my past/current clients: Grant Thornton, HarperCollins Publishing, Christian Dior Perfumes & Cosmetics, Pismo, CallRail, ColorStack, and LinkedIn.

🔺What's my story? I've worn hearing aids from a young age and was diagnosed with progressive vision loss at 17 years old. I have 14+ years of experience in the public sector in nonprofits and education. I'm also an entrepreneur. I have two graduate degrees. I care about social justice and I'm committed to purpose-driven work. When I'm not following my purpose, I'm studying Italian, traveling, and dancing.
