Breanne Kiefner is the founder of Root Adventures, an anti-bucket list travel company dedicated to creating transformative, mindful travel experiences. Her approach to travel is deeply personal—shaped by a childhood marked by food insecurity, instability, and undiagnosed dyslexia. These early challenges instilled in her a lifelong sense of curiosity, resilience, and a nontraditional approach to learning and connection.

Breanne began her career in hospitality in 2000, working her way up from housekeeping to event planning at a large hotel. Her introduction to adventure travel came when she sold all her belongings and embarked on a six-month backpacking journey through Latin America—her first trip outside North America. It was on that journey that Breanne began to find healing through the communities she encountered.

Upon returning to the U.S., she committed herself to the adventure travel industry, with a mission to share the restorative and perspective-shifting power of travel. Through Root Adventures, Breanne invites others to step off the beaten path and into meaningful connection—with themselves, with others, and with the world.

I like to describe my career to people as making the world a better place for all people, no matter their needs. I truly believe our work makes a difference in people's lives. That is why accessibility is as much a passion as a profession. My aim in any role is to promote digital inclusivity and ensure that all users have equal access to information and services online.

My day-to-day work involves conducting accessibility audits and assessments to identify potential barriers to access. I like to offer solutions, not just list the problems, and prefer to work with the project team to find a fix that considers their team, their coding comfort level, and any system restrictions. Accessibility improvements shouldn't feel impossible, and it's important to me to spend time ensuring the project team feel positive about the improvements rather than frustrated.

In my role as a subject matter expert, I work with designers, developers, and content creators to ensure that their products and services meet accessibility standards and guidelines. I also support clients who would consider themselves 'non-technical', and enjoy the challenge of simplifying complex technical subjects.

I'm based in Scotland but can also be regularly found around Manchester, Leeds and London as part of my work with Nexer Digital. I'm also very comfortable speaking alongside any Nexer Digital colleagues -- you can check out their Sessionize pages: Danny Lancaster, Chris Bush, Rachel Breeze, and Molly Watt.
