In this episode we speak with Maria Lamardo. After unexpectedly entering tech, Maria developed a specialty in accessibility engineering and also began speaking at conferences and organizing local communities. Maria eventually started speaking on global stages and also got her current job, which is completely focused on accessibility.

In this conversation, Maria and I talk about her story, how she developed a specialty, low hanging accessibility fruit that engineering teams can implement, the value of public speaking, and more. Enjoy!
