Work with me

I'm an accessibility advocate, consultant and engineer with 9+ years of web development experience. I specialize in accessibility audits (WCAG 2.2), creating accessible data visualizations, and evaluating design systems. You can hire me for one off and reoccuring audits, strategy and trainings.

Interested in working with me? I am taking new clients in July 2024. You can email me at hello@lindseykopacz.com to talk to me more about your project.

Services Offered

Accessibility Audits

I am a skilled accessibility auditor with a focus in JavaScript applications. I use my years of experience as a web developer and accessibility professional to make it as easy as possible for web developers to understand. Instead of just giving you a spreadsheet with a list of errors, I use my personal experience working on accessibility issues as a web developer to tell you what I would do if I were in your position. Additionally, I am available on an hourly rate to pair program with developers on your team to work through solutions to the accessibility issues from the audit.

I’m available to audit:

• New features and user flows on your web applications
• Design Systems
• Websites. As a note: I’ll need you to provide your main landing pages and 1-2 pages of every content type.

Accessibility Strategy

I would love to get your organization to a place where you are proactive instead of reactive about accessibility issues. I can help your organization create a strategy to start reducing future accessibility issues. Accessibility processes and strategies are my jam and I can help you come up with a game plan that accounts for your resources and existing structure.

This can include any or all of following:

• Assisting in creating documentation using the documentation tools your team uses (e.g. Confluence, Design System, etc)
• Advising designers on designing for disabled users and help with creating accessibility notations.
• Developing an accessibility testing process for Developers and Quality Assurance Engineers
• Requirement Gathering for a new feature for accessibility

Accessibility Training

I am available remotely to conduct trainings and workshops for your engineering and QA teams. I’m available on a one-off or quarterly reoccurring basis to train new team members. Because I train from a neurodivergent perspective, I never assume anything is obvious and love to explain accessibility issues in a way that’s understood even for junior level talent.

Topics I cover:

• Accessibility Principles
• Semantic HTML
• In-depth ARIA comprehension
• Automated and Manual Testing
