Manage episode 275450619 series 2102609
Laura Silva is the VP of Accessible UX Design at Bank of America and shares with us what a day in her life looks like. Her background wasn't always rooted in accessibility, but after a few life events, she felt inclined to help those who are often forgotten.
In this episode, you'll learn how you can look out for those with different accessibility needs, whether they be physical or mental, temporal or permanent.
We also get to answer a few questions that come in from the audience, which contributed to a great episode.
