In 2025, I’m committed to supporting others through active listening and intentional presenting. I presented to Surrey librarians and went to Delta & New West to share about ARC-BC, books, and the Accessible BC Act. Excited to prep for ATIA in Florida! #DigitalAccessibility

I have been using ChatGPT for a good year now. Today I put into ChatGPT: "Looking back on my ChatGPT posts in 2024, can you give me some self care questions to help me in 2025". It was awesome!

December was a whirlwind! I trained staff and students on accessibility across Vancouver Island, presented to kids & staff, visited the Indigenous Library in Mission, continued Delta’s Digital Accessibility Ambassador program, and prepared for ARC-BC’s 2025 initiatives. Exciting times ahead!
