Starting #AETC25 with a great session from Karen Janowski on Practical Strategies for Accessible Materials. Off the bat, showing everyone how to turn on live captions in google slides!

And I decided I need to start growing my network again. So here’s a tiny step forward.
Let’s nerd out on #tech, #accessibility, #hiking, and #InclusiveEd

A selfie in an accessible kitchen! A variety of accessible kitchen tools on the counter behind me. My green apron from Seehausen’s against my black sweater makes me look like a Starbucks barista

Today APTAT is participating at Leadership Bham & demonstrating how #AssistiveTechnology can help people with disabilities be as independent as possible in all aspects of life, including the kitchen!

Fun fact: the apron is from the grocery store I worked at while looking a job after college

Hello 2025. After the past few years being more about survival, I want to get back to growing. I’m setting the goal of 6 books/resources on work related topics, 10 books for fun, and 3 volunteer activities.
Here we go!

Today I helped a new AT specialist walk through the PAR with a student to help determine appropriate assistive technology and accommodations in reading. My day cannot get any better.

Alright @bsky.app , just don’t break my heart like the last one. It’s ok if we grow apart, just don’t turn into an ass.
