Hi All,


 


Knowbility just identified Lisa as an Emerging Leader in its
“Heroes of Accessibility” for 2016. See text below. Congratulations, Lisa!


 


“Lisa Seeman is directly responsible for leading the cognitive accessibility effort in
 the W3C. Never before has any cognitive accessibility research been brought out to the wider community and pulled together to get industry wide focus on the largest demographic of disabled users. This group will be defining the most important advancement in
 the extension to WCAG.”
