I cultivate and maintain Fable's event strategy. I am responsible for planning, producing and executing Fable's event appearances and own programming, for both in-person and virtual engagements. Navigating the whirlwind of details to achieve a coherent brand and product awareness brings me great satisfaction in general, but particularly because I have the privilege of amplifying compelling voices for more inclusive design. Fable's mission is to empower people with disabilities to participate in, contribute to, and ultimately shape society. Our events demonstrate to new and familiar audiences why a human-centered approach to accessibility improves digital experiences for everyone, and why disabled expertise should be centred in product development.
