Excited to announce I'll be giving a talk on red teaming gaming AI experiences for accessibility and disability at GDC 2025. #a11y #GDC2025

I will be at #GDC2025 this year, giving a talk on red teaming gaming AI experiences for accessibility and disability. If you are a game studio / publisher looking to learn more about making games more accessible, I'd love to chat. Feel free to drop me a line! #a11y #gamedev

SO EXCITED that the Xbox Adaptive Joystick is now available to purchase for customers!!! $29.99 xbox.com/en-US/accessor…

This might be a new record for catching "Con Crud." Got here Sunday and last night started feeling terrible. Thankfully it isn't COVID but sad I'll miss socializing with my #a11y friends at #gdc2025. Still going to try to give my talk though! Cold meds and masks acquired.

So here is a first: Getting sick right before my GDC talk and worrying about my voice giving out to the point that I find myself up at 5am, scraping the web for past videos I made, training an AI voice model with them, and recording the presentation with it... just in case. 😅

This is HUGE news. Universal Accessibility Tags on Storefronts makes it much simpler to identify a game that has the type of accessibility a disabled player may need. This isn't a ESRB type system or a legal mandate to make a standard accessibility list. This is to help disabled

Literally half a decade of work by so many amazing people to make this happen. I do not have the words to fully express my gratitude for all the individuals who poured their hearts and souls and hours into this initiative. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. #a11y
