Deque AxeCon: How short-term gains helped a leading cloud provider to prioritize accessibility

March 2022

Accessibility is a top priority for this cloud provider, but the execution of accessibility is a challenge given their size and scale. By ‘chipping away’ at the issue incrementally and with focused efforts, the team was able to establish a plan for short-term gains, versus trying to tackle everything at once.

Example slide from a gender inclusive presentation. The slides reads, " What matters? Make the correction, and move forward in the meeting or conversation. If you're the one being corrected, thank the individual who corrected you, restate with the correct pronouns/name and graciously move on."

Gender inclusion 101

A foundational exercise in making design spaces more inclusive for transgender, non-binary and gender-diverse users. This presentation explores the relationships and nuances between words that center around gender identity, how to be a better ally in the workplace (getting better at pronouns and names), and examples of gender inclusion design considerations. I curate each presenation to the needs of the team so that they can be better advocates for gender inclusion.
