About Laura Berry
I am passionate about inclusive design and making digital products that are truly usable by all people. In my role as accessibility consultant, I have performed design reviews of a wide variety of web, mobile, and native apps. I also conduct user research and usability studies with users with disabilities in industries including retail, healthcare, telecommunications and education. I have written courses ranging from basic accessibility concepts to advanced web accessibility techniques. I even spent some time as a web developer at the beginning of my career.All of this experience makes me uniquely qualified to communicate accessibility concepts and standards to a range of audiences. I draw on that experience when I analyze, report, and present the results of design reviews and usability studies, including user impact, relevant WCAG 2.1 standards, and recommendations. And I continue to immerse myself in a deep understanding of accessibility standards, analyzing new standards and drafting best practices and tests to be incorporated into Level Access’ Accessibility Management Platform (AMP) – including WCAG 2.1 and the draft WCAG 2.2.Design Tools: Figma, Sketch, InVision, Adobe XD, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe PhotoshopAssistive Technology: JAWS for Windows, VoiceOver, TalkBackAccessibility Testing Tools: Accessibility Management Platform (AMP)Languages: Java, HTML, CSS, JavaScriptOther Tools: Microsoft Office Suite, Adobe Creative Suite, Lectora, Adobe Captivate
