Challenges and Considerations for Excel and Accessibility YouTube video by Accessibility Unraveled

New Chax Chat episode! Chad & Dax dive into real-world doc accessibility—Word, Excel & Acrobat tips, tricky tables, merged cells & more. Plus: spreadsheet strategies, koi talk, Chad’s cat, and a Chax freebie! #Accessibility #PDF #ChaxChat #Microsoft #Adobe

An A.I. digital rendering of seven toy-style blister packs styled like collectible action figures. The largest package on the left features a likeness of me labeled “ADHD Adult,” holding a hammer and fishing pole with accessories including a chicken, koi fish, and “How To” book. Surrounding it are five themed “expansion packs” labeled Japanese Watercolor, Woodworking, Gardening, Korean Cooking, and White Water Rafting. Each contains clay-style miniature tools and items representing that hobby. Text reads: “It’s okay to be me!” and the Global Accessibility Awareness Day logo.

Today is Global Accessibility Awareness Day #GAAD2025 —a day that means a lot to me, both professionally and personally.

Here is a playful reminder that our identities don’t come with a manual or warnings —but maybe they should come with expansion packs.
