Who Haley Works With
The world of Learning & Development is my sweet spot; however, I am open to working with any industry. I love to learn new things.
If you’ve said any of these questions or statements, then we ought to work together:
“Should my business care about accessibility?”
“What are some high impact, but low effort things we can do to improve accessibility?“
“How can my organization incorporate diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility?“
“I want our products/services to be more accessible.”
“Let’s find ways to improve the user experience.”
“I’m not sure how to collect accessibility data.”
“I want learning designers and facilitators to apply accessibility and inclusive design.”
“I’d like to purchase accessibility technology, but I’m not sure what to look for.”
