Commitment to Accessibility

I am committed to making this website accessible to all users, including those with disabilities. This website aims to comply with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA.

Accessibility Features

This website includes the following accessibility features:

  • Semantic HTML structure for better screen reader navigation
  • Keyboard navigation support throughout the site
  • Sufficient color contrast for text readability
  • Text resizing without loss of content or functionality
  • Alternative text for images
  • ARIA attributes where appropriate
  • Skip to main content link
  • Responsive design for various devices and screen sizes

Conformance Status

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA.

This website is partially conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA. Partially conformant means that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

Limitations and Alternatives

Despite my efforts to ensure accessibility of this website, there may be some limitations. Below is a description of known limitations:

  • Some older content may not be fully accessible
  • Some third-party content may not be fully accessible

If you experience any difficulty accessing content on this website, please contact me via LinkedIn. I welcome your feedback and will consider all requests to make content accessible.

Assessment Methods

This website's accessibility was assessed using a combination of:

  • Automated testing tools
  • Manual testing with keyboard navigation
  • Testing with screen readers
  • Visual inspections

Core Web Vitals

In addition to accessibility, this website is optimized for Core Web Vitals, which are a set of metrics that measure user experience in terms of loading performance, interactivity, and visual stability:

  • Largest Contentful Paint (LCP): Measures loading performance. The site aims for LCP to occur within 2.5 seconds of when the page first starts loading.
  • First Input Delay (FID): Measures interactivity. The site aims for pages to have an FID of less than 100 milliseconds.
  • Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS): Measures visual stability. The site aims for pages to maintain a CLS of less than 0.1.

Optimizations implemented to improve Core Web Vitals include:

  • Image optimization and proper sizing
  • Efficient loading of third-party scripts
  • Minimizing render-blocking resources
  • Proper image dimensions to prevent layout shifts
  • Responsive design practices
