I submitted the title and abstract for my upcoming talk. πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

The title slide for my talk

Title: A Disabled Dev’s Journey
Abstract: Every company wants to be first to market, but that's only one part of a product's success. Companies often consider accessibility too time-consuming or difficult to put into place without remembering that meeting customer needs is what keeps them in the market. This talk will cover my experience advocating for accessibility as a disabled developer and why there's no excuse for treating it as an edge case.

Thank you! It's actually for a local Python meetup. It'll be my first one ever so it'll be a little bit before I submit to any conferences. I need some practice first! 🀩
