More on Accessible Writing: Fancy Fonts
Every time I think I’ve finished this series on Accessible Writing, another topic comes up! This post on Fancy Fonts started as a LinkedIn post to get some thoughts from my network.

Published: Are You Missing the D in DEI?
I had an article published in the recent Workplace in Action® People Excellence magazine. “Are You Missing the ‘D’ in DEI?” explores how diversity & inclusion initiatives may be missing the mark if they aren’t including disability.
My full article is shared below (along with a page for the #A11yBook!), but I hope you’ll check out the full magazine here as well. I’m still reading some of the great articles contributed by my colleagues – it’s a robust issue with a variety of perspectives.
Recap: A Crash Course in Disability Etiquette
I did a thing this weekend – I graduated! I’ve been participating in a Speaker’s Academy for the last several months, led by the National Speakers Association – Las Vegas Chapter. Our Speaker’s Showcase on Saturday featured my new mini-keynote, “A Crash Course in Disability Etiquette.”
Update: The edited recording is here! I’ve provided my initial version of the talk below, and the final video contains the accurate spoken transcript.

We’re going to explore the phases of the employee life cycle: Attraction, Recruitment, Onboarding, Development, and Retention. I’ll share some accessibility and inclusion best practices in each of these areas, and also include a related benefit of disability inclusion.

Review: The Inclusive Speaker
The Inclusive Speaker by Denis Boudreau has been on my radar for a bit, and I got to finally finish up reading on my flight back from New Orleans last weekend.
I have to start by saying, I really wanted to be able to recommend this book. I went in with the highest of hopes, imagining myself sharing this book with my speaker’s community and creating a wave of more disability-inclusive speakers. Since I speak on accessibility and disability inclusion, other speakers often ask me what they can do better to reach these audience members. This book has some good wisdom, but is in other places… problematic.
Recap: ATD Chapter Leaders Conference 2024
What is the ATD Chapter Leaders Conference (ALC)? Every year, leaders of ATD Chapters around the country come together to share best practices about making their ATD Chapters work better. The boards of ATD Chapters are made of volunteers who donate their time, expertise, and resources to their local Talent Development communities, and this conference is one of my absolute favorites.
I’ve been attending this conference for several years, as a leader of my own local Chapter (ATD Greater Las Vegas) in several roles. This year, I submitted two sessions for consideration as a speaker – and got the opportunity to present both sessions!
