I am a Senior Frontend Engineer at Khan Academy and I’ve been working in the industry for over 7+ years. During my day job I work mostly on React web components and focus on Accessible Technology. On my off hours I love talking about how to create more accessible and inclusive web applications and writing about new technology creating positive social impact in our world today. I firmly believe technology can be used to create a more inclusive and equitable world as long as we keep it in check.
