I have been learning about Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, (WCAG). I am preparing for the Certified Professional in Accessibility Core Competencies, (CPACC) exam. My training also includes working with axe Auditor software to check websites for accessibility problems. We have covered other tools, such as Accessible Name and Description Inspector, (ANDI), and other JavaScript based accessibility utilities. During my internship, I have had opportunity to learn from professional development opportunities, including workshops, job shadowing sessions, and team meetings. I have always considered myself excellent at communication, but after attending some of the guest speaker sessions, I believe my skills have further improved.

Stormux started as a continuation of the work started on blind accessible Raspberry Pi images started by F123. The images are called Stormux, but my brand has also expanded to cover some of the other accessibility projects I have created including audiogame-manager and I38. Stormux also does classes from time to time depending on interest gleaned from the email list. So far topics covered include using regular expressions and getting user input in bash.

I teach an introductory Python course. Classes supplement the text, provided by Cisco.I tend to focus on learning concepts and the language instead of using a heavily math based approach. We do lab work on concepts as they are learned, such as loops, if statements, and eventually classes, moving into object oriented programming near the end of the course.I try to keep my students engaged and interested in the course work. I find out what students want to write, and base my teaching strategy toward helping them achieve their goals.

Development of the F123Light Linux distribution for the Raspberry Pi 3B+. Designed and emplimented easy to use interfaces with multilingual support using gettext.The command line interface, (CLI), used a software called pdmenu. I wrote software to make a very light weight window manager accessible to the Orca screen reader, and we even had a functional desktop which was primarily keyboard shortcut driven.I worked on scripts to port the F123Light distribution to the X86_64 platform. I was also in charge of getting a laptop version running on the Pinebook, a small ARM architecture based laptop.

Provided technical support such as helping people reset their passwords. Helped test the website for accessibility problems. I learned a small amount about the Moodle platform.

Software development for the Vinux distribution of Linux. I was part of the trusted support team with the ability to login remotely and help with problems that would arise on user's computers.I helped with the build scripts to create the images. I also helped choose the software that would be included on new releases.
