I really like the point that you raised around thinking about accessibility inclusive design and using that as a framing for innovation. I don't think almost nobody thinks about it that way. And I think that's partly just because people haven't been, like I said, people haven't experienced it or gone through it. But we should be doing that, right? To give people a chance to experience it so they learn about things in a different way than just thinking it's something different.
I had the great honor of being invited back to An Event Apart Denver (2019) to record a live podcast episode with Mina Markham, Farai Madzima, & Derek Featherstone on the important topics of Accessibility, Design Inclusion & Ethics, Hiring & Retaining Diverse Talent and Landing a Job in UX. Amazingly, we were able to cover all of this in just under an hour!
