So honoured to have had a tiny part in the incredible work of researchers like @AdrianDCChan who are committed to more inclusive environments
This National AccessAbility Week, we spotlight the work of @Carleton_U's accessibility researchers. As an emerging interdisciplinary field of research and practice, researchers are studying ways to align their work to contribute to accessibility, above and beyond the traditional boundaries of their disciplines and histories. #NAAW2024

I did it! Well me and my village did it. On Saturday I graduated from @Carleton_U with my Master of Design. It still feels surreal. Thanks for an incredible celebration of all the accomplishments of the students.
