“There isn't any other way to describe Elle professionally than brilliant! I have had the distinct pleasure of her thought leadership, friendship, and mentorship for some time now. Occasionally, we get to meet and work with people we consider really bright, passionate, and driven. She is certainly all of that. She also is one of those professional associates we sometimes get to meet who are incredibly generous. I have never spoken with Elle or spent time with her in which I did not come away energized, ready for whatever challenges come my way, and feeling positive about the solutions at hand. And did I mention that in terms of UX, Accessibility, process and application of UX practices, she is amazingly spot on! Something to be said for passion and experience. ”

OpenAIR is a global event that seeks to increase awareness of the tools and techniques that make the Internet accessible to everyone - including people with disabilities through the use of team competition and social activism.
Teams of professional web developers learn skills to create accessible web content and then use those new skills to create accessible websites for local community groups. The result: web professionals learn how to design and develop accessible user experiences and dozens of professionally designed, accessible websites are donated to nonprofit groups and hosted for free for one year.
Through OpenAIR, teams learn accessible design techniques, have the chance to show off their skills, win prizes, and help nonprofits do the work that benefits our communities.
