What do you enjoy most about being in your industry?
I would say I'm in both the education and technology industries. It's a very growing industry right now, with lots of new players.
It can be very exciting to see what new products are out there and what products my Department of Education clients are interested in. That's probably the most exciting part.
My company focuses specifically on accessibility supports within education technology. It's interesting and exciting to learn about how low-vision students, for example, are interacting with online tools in the same way as students with unimpaired vision.
