Portfolio: This woman’s work

The combination web development and accessibility is my passion. The web should be usable for everyone.

For the digital agency Level Level in Rotterdam, I work as a senior accessibility consultant.

Besides that I am a trainer for The A11Y Collective, an online learning platform for web accessibility.

Certification

With the International Association of Accessibility Professionals (IAAP) I am registered as a Certified Professional in Web Accessibility (CPWA). In the Netherlands I’m a certified accessible web builder educated by the Dutch Accessibility Foundation.

Accessibility consultancy

At the moment I work as an accessibility consultant for the full service digital agency Level Level. I work on client projects and train my colleagues.

Recent consultancy work for Level Level

  • Education of the designers and developers of Level Level.
  • Internal accessibility auditing of Level Level client work.
  • Presentations and workshops for WordCamps, meetups and conferences globally.
  • WCAG-EM Accessibility audits.
  • Consultancy and accessibility reviews for projects of Human Made.
  • Consultancy and accessibility reviews for the WordPress form plugin Gravity Forms by Rocketgenius.

Previous consultancy work

For the Genesis Framework I did an accessibility overhaul to make it WCAG 2.0 AA compliant.  Tenon.io mentioned Genesis as the most accessible WordPress framework in their research in 2018.

Training web accessibility

In 2020 we started the The A11y Collective, an online learning platform for web accessibility, for designers, developers and content creators. But also for site owners, project managers and stakeholders.

I give in-house workshops for companies like  Team Yoast, Yard Internet, Stuurlui, Human Made, Rocketgenius, and Geev vorm.

Open source contributions

Since 2012 I contribute to the WordPress project. I give presentations and workshops at WordCamps and meetups. If you want to meet me or invite me to speak, please contact me.

Until October 2018 I was an active part of the WordPress Accessibility Team. For this I got props for several WordPress releases and “rockstar” credits for 4.3 & 4.5.

In 2016 Knowbility gave me the Heroes of Accessibility Award for Individual Achievement for my contributions to WordPress.
