Re: Welcome to the Web & AI Interest Group (WebAI) - Please introduce yourselves.

Hello everyone,

I'm Craig Abbott, I'm a Principal Accessibility Specialist at TetraLogical.

This is my first time participating in anything W3C, so excited to be
involved!

I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with AI. I enjoy experimenting
with it and testing its capabilities in various different ways,
particularly when it comes to accessibility.

You can find me writing, speaking or discussing AI and accessibility
frequently, on my blog, conferences and social media:

Great to virtually meet you all!

Thanks,
Craig
