I am a 40 year old woman, wife and mom of 2. I live in Denmark north of Copenhagen and work as a Software Engineer, more specifically , an Android developer, in the Pharma company Novo Nordisk, where we build healthcare apps for patients. I have a bachelors degree in Physiotherapy since 2018 and i hold a masters degree in Software Design since January 2023. While i was studying Physiotherapy i participated in a research project to create a mobile application for young adolescents with diabetes 1, with the users/patients in focus. On my master i specialised in technical interaktion design which is a mix of mobile development for Android and the entire process of designing and developing software. In my thesis i created a prototype of an Android app for Physiotherapists where I did everything from user research to design, implementation and usability tests. I have not worked with the term "Accessibility" for many years, but I have been working patient-centered since i started studying Physiotherapy in 2014. This is one of the reasons why I have build up a huge passion for accessibility. Currently I am on a mission to incorporate accessibility in all the digital products that we produce in our big organisation. I am holding this kind of presentation in many forums for many people, as well as facilitating workshops to teach entire project teams how to always think about accessibility and easier implement it. It is on this mission I discovered an extremely relevant topic that is missing. I believe that illuminating this could benefit many in their everyday work with digital products. I have already done this presentation at an internal design summit hosting 150 designers from multiple departments all over the corporation. All of the presentations has received great feedback, some even wrote that it was the best they had seen in a long time. Furthermore it has opened eyes on backend developers to take more responsibility to implement accessibility and on designers to try to understand the technical perspective on a deeper level. And what i really want is to step away from the mindset that accessibility only exists with the designers. Additionally I offer concrete methods and tools that you can take into your work straight after the presentation.

In my free time, when i don't take care of my two small boys, I play basketball, do a lot of different creative projects and take care of the garden in our Allotment. I also have ADHD so besides my passion for equal rights and opportunities, I personally struggle with heavy content components/apps and get easily affected by cognitive overload.
