Focus on Assistive Technologies

About the series

Several times a year, I offer 30-minute sessions over Zoom on topics related to assistive technologies, employment accommodation, and accessibility.

Intended Audiences

These sessions are geared to anyone involved in employment accommodation, assistive technologies, and accessibility:

Although most sessions are not technical, many may pique the interest of technical folks — and anyone who cares about digital inclusion.

London International Festival of Early Music (LIFEM) 2026

Those who know me probably recognize that I'm in my element as an assistive technologist. Woodworking, however, is not one of my strengths. I'm far more comfortable dealing with software than with physical stuff. I'm not much of a builder. I own a few tools, but I rarely attempt anything more ambitious than tightening loose screws or hanging pictures on a wall. I can, with difficulty, assemble IKEA furniture.

My near-total lack of woodworking skills sets the stage of a story: how I hand-built an accurate reproduction of a 300-year-old recorder during a five-day course. I'll be telling this story at LIFEM 2026 in Greenwich, England, in November 2026.

Details forthcoming.
