I'm a gaming journalist who covers the industry from a disabled lens. My articles explore the accessibility initiatives made by development studios, as well as the representation of disabled people through consulting and exposure opportunities. When not discussing accessibility and the disabled community, I really enjoy writing features exploring my favorite franchises, namely the Pokémon series.
