Bio/Description

I a member of the WordPress Accessibility Team, a non-prolific WordPress
core contributor and organizer of the Tulsa WordPress Meetup. I’ve been
involved in web development since 1998 and has been a member of the
WordPress community since 2011.

Accessibility in web design became a passion when my son lost his vision
at age 15. Since then I have learned all that I can about how to build
accessible sites with a particular emphasis on users with low vision.
When I’m not working with the WordPress open source project I build
custom WordPress sites for wonderful clients. I have had the
privilege to work with clients like System Center Central, Mozilla,
and Microsoft among others.
