Social Media Campaigns
Knowing how to reach a massive audience through the internet is a valuable skill to have in the technology field. I have recently launched a campaign that brings attention to how people and businesses relate to people who have varying abilities. While practicing independent living skills in public, my therapist and I survey accessibility and public perception of people with varying abilities. I post our findings on a Facebook page in order to make a positive change in the world. Through this campaign, I have learned skills such as website management and video editing.
