• I'm trying to learn more about disabilities and accessibility, both very wide and deep subjects at the same time - with a goal to make digital products that work for as much people as possible.
• I’m always learning more about web technologies in general as the changes and advancement in the field does not sleep and I ❤ WEB & I would ❤ A11y will be more embraced, respected and integrated in the future.
• I also like to think and blog on accessibility, from theoretical to practical aspects of it.
• I’m Web Accessibility Specialist certified by the International Association of Accessibility Professionals (IAAP).
• I was a Mobile Web Specialist certified by Google but they discontinued the certification (it was a true hands-on coding exam with real world problems that had to be solved by coding in 4 hours frame, so not your typical A/B/C/D multiple choices lottery).
• I stil like to play - I used to play a lot of Sid Meier's Civilization (TM), but now I love to play with Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Augmented and Virtual reality and sometimes even with some Arduinos, Particles, NodeMCU's and ATTiny85's.
