I’ve traveled to #Atlanta to give two training talks to the Teachers Retirement System of #Georgia (State of Georgia) on making presentations & videos accessible. Pretty exciting! #Accessibility #A11y #WCAG #Section508 #ADA (Photo: Atlanta skyline w/Georgia Statehouse in the background by Kat Shaw)

I’m a big fan of the U.S. Postal Service, but I’m unfortunately missing a package. I completed their multi-page “contact us via email” form and this is the message I received at the end:
“There was a problem submitting your Service Request. Please try again later.” 😳 (1/2)

And coming soon 6. Assigned seats & best seats go to Business/A-List customers. It's actually worse than the major airlines because they have no included food or alcoholic drinks, & they have smaller seat spacing. It's time to #DumpSouthwest until/unless they see the light & change their ways. (2/2)

I've been a dedicated #Southwest customer for years. No more. Why? 1. Pay for all checked bags; 2. Reward point earn ratio lowered for all fares; 3. Reward point rates will now vary with high/low demand travel periods; 4. Expiration date for fare credits; 5. New "Basic Fare" w/less benefits. (1/2)

I always wonder why some people in tech are so put off by anything “accessibility”. It’s like it’s a bad word, and you may even hear crickets. It’s unnerving, sad, and lonely at times. It’s still worth it, because it’s not for me. 🤟 #AccessibilityMatters #WeAreAllHuman

I wanted to share the virtual (and free) #FormFest event happening tomorrow where I'll be co-presenting with three other amazing women on the #MyMassGov project for the Commonwealth of #Massachusetts. #accessibility #a11y #WCAG web.cvent.com/hub/events/f...

Our Kansas Jayhawks are wearing my favorite uniforms against Colorado Buffaloes at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, the red legs. For Kansas free state & civil war history buffs out there, it’s a great thing to see! Rock Chalk Jayhawk Go KU!!!!!!! 🏈 #Jayhawks #RockChalk #BleedingKansas
