Hi, I'm Erik. I'm a photographer and creative in the world of accessibility. I like to:

  • Sink my teeth into a challenge
  • Get the most out of people and situations
  • Create structure where there is none
  • Use bulleted lists

Accessibility Session

Do you encounter a barrier in my streams? Let me know and I'll chase it. Once a week I stream about Web Accessibility. I prefer to have a guest. Guests can present a topic related to Web Accessibility and/or Web Development. If there's no presentation, I'll pick up an open source project to improve while streaming. Wether there is a guest or not, it revolves around sharing knowledge and experience. Please ask questions so we can have a conversation. Want to join me? It's like a continuous call for presentations except you can just contact me.

I'm not neuro-typical and have a brain injury after 3 surgeries. My la(te)st surgery was in 2020. It might result in having trouble to focus on multiple things and being tired early. So don't expect me to be fast or stream 24/7. Follow me on Twitch for notifications.
