Favorite Technology

Accessibility is key to people's well-being, so my favorite technology is centered around accessibility features and technology. First and foremost, I would not be able to do my job or even function as a human being without my glasses. In addition, accessibility features like dark mode on applications and software and ergonomic chairs and computer peripherals help reduce the strain my work has on me. So, in my free time, I can often be looking into some of the best technology and strategies for improving accessibility in an office work environment.
