Overview

I live with a cervical spinal cord injury and use assistive technology every day to interact with computers, websites, and digital tools. That includes voice control, head tracking for cursor movement, and facial expressions for clicks and drag actions.

Because of that lived experience, I can help identify accessibility and usability barriers that standard testing often misses. If you have a website, app, device, or digital product you would like evaluated from a real-world assistive technology perspective, this page explains how that process works.

What I offer

I provide real-world feedback based on daily use of assistive technology and limited motor function. My focus is not generic product reviewing. It is practical accessibility testing centered on whether people can actually use a product, complete tasks, and recover from barriers.

• Website accessibility testing
• Web app and software usability feedback
• Task-based testing using assistive technology
• Product reviews focused on accessibility and real use
• Follow-up feedback after fixes or updates

Assistive technology and input methods I use

• macOS Voice Control
• Head tracking for cursor movement
• Facial expressions for clicks and drag actions
• Limited mobility below the shoulders

This combination creates a very different experience from standard mouse-and-keyboard use. It can expose problems with target size, focus order, timing, drag interactions, complex gestures, mislabeled controls, and workflows that assume hand use.

Good fit for this kind of testing

• Websites and online forms
• Web applications and dashboards
• Consumer software and digital tools
• Assistive technology related products
• Devices or accessories that affect computer access
• Interfaces that need feedback from a user with limited mobility

What you receive

Depending on the project, feedback can include:

• A written summary of barriers and usability issues
• Notes about where and why a task breaks down
• Observations on ease of use, efficiency, and frustration points
• Practical recommendations for improvement
• Optional follow-up testing after changes are made

How the process works

1. You reach out with a short description of your product, website, app, or testing need.
2. I review whether it is a good fit for the type of feedback I provide.
3. We define the scope, goals, and any important tasks to test.
4. I test the experience using my everyday setup and input methods.
5. You receive structured feedback on barriers, usability issues, and possible improvements.

Important note

This kind of feedback is based on lived experience and real-world use. It can add valuable perspective to your accessibility and usability work, but it should complement, not replace, broader accessibility testing across multiple disabilities, devices, and assistive technologies.

Partnerships and sponsored work

I am open to hearing about partnerships, sponsored evaluations, and product testing opportunities when they are relevant to accessibility, assistive technology, or real-world usability. Any sponsored relationship should be clearly disclosed, and honest feedback remains essential.
