Accessibility & Quality
Manual WCAG 2.2 AA review on every build, not an automated scanner pass. Keyboard navigation tested. Screen-reader spot-checked. Accessibility statement included at handoff.
95.9% of the top million home pages have detectable WCAG failures (WebAIM Million 2026). I audit, fix and build websites to WCAG 2.2 AA, fast, without enterprise cost.

Who I am
I raised accessibility from 80% to 95% at Amazon. Now I do it for you.
I spent nearly a decade as a design lead at Amazon, where I led accessibility across a multi-brand organisation and raised accessibility coverage from roughly 80% to 95%. Accessibility isn't a checkbox I add at the end. It's how I've worked for years. Now I bring that senior eye to founders and small teams, building fast with AI-native tools and testing by hand the way a screen-reader user actually experiences your site.
About one in four adults in the UK, EU and US lives with a disability. Accessible sites reach more of them, and they're easier for search engines to read. Meeting the standard is the start. Reaching more customers is the point.
Backed by people who'd know
Endorsed by design leaders at Amazon.
Featuring public, named, and checkable professional recommendations from former colleagues to speak for my work while this new profile establishes its first client reviews.
“She handled each request with impressive clarity and ownership, and the quality of her work consistently made our collaboration smooth and reliable.”
“She expertly navigates both meticulously planned projects and high-pressure, quick-turn challenges with equal skill.”
“Not only did she meet our ambitious 95% compliance target, she exceeded it, setting new standards of excellence.”
What I build
Four ways to work. One standard.
Audit, fix, build, or maintain, accessibility is the default, not the add-on.

FAQ
Questions, answered before you ask.
How does pricing work?
Every project is fixed price, agreed before any code is written. We start with a short discovery call to scope your goal, audience, and must-haves; I'll quote a fixed price and timeline by the end of it, no hourly billing, no surprise invoices. As an early client, while this profile is still building its track record, you also get 40% off standard pricing in exchange for a detailed case study and testimonial once we ship.
Can I see examples of your work before booking?
Yes, scroll down to 'Proof of work' for live, inspectable projects, including a GOV.UK-pattern accessibility prototype and a privacy-first platform I designed and built end-to-end. No client case studies yet, since I'm just launching, but everything linked there is real, not a mockup.
What's included in the price?
Every package includes a fully functional, production-ready build, not a template, source code you own outright, a manual WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility check, and an agreed number of revision rounds. Higher tiers add a CRO review, a full accessibility audit, and handoff documentation. Exact inclusions are listed against each package above.
How and when do I pay?
Typically 50% deposit to begin, 50% on delivery, paid by Stripe. For larger app projects, we can split into milestone payments. Everything is agreed and confirmed in writing before work starts.
What if I don't like the result?
Every package includes 2 rounds of revisions, so we adjust until it's right before final delivery, I'll confirm scope on the call so there are no surprises. If we genuinely can't land on something that works, we'll discuss a partial refund based on work completed.
What if my project ends up bigger than expected?
If new requirements come up mid-project, I'll flag it immediately and quote the additional scope separately, you'll never be charged for extra work without agreeing to it first. The original fixed price never changes without your sign-off.
You mention AI tools (Lovable, Claude Code, UX Pilot), is this AI-generated work?
I build with AI-native tools, that's how I deliver in days, not months. But speed alone doesn't make a site accessible. WebAIM's February 2026 study of the top million home pages found 95.9% had detectable WCAG failures, the first rise in six years. Every build I ship is reviewed and hardened by hand, keyboard, screen reader, and contrast tested, by a senior designer. You get AI speed with human accountability.
Can I get just a landing page, or just an app?
Yes, they're separate, fixed-price offers. Most clients start with the landing page and come back for the app later, but you're welcome to book either on its own, or both together.
What happens after handoff?
You get full documentation and a walkthrough call so your team, or you, can run, extend, or hand the project to another developer with no lock-in. I'm also available for ongoing support through an Accessibility & Care retainer if you'd rather not manage it yourself.
Where are you based?
East London, UK, working GMT/BST hours. I work with clients across the UK and EU, in English, French, or German.
I found you on Fiverr or LinkedIn, does anything change if I book directly instead?
No, same process, same pricing, same person. Booking directly just means no marketplace fees on my end, which I can sometimes pass on as a small discount. If you'd rather use Fiverr's buyer protection for your first project, that's completely fine too.
Why should I trust a new freelance profile?
Fair question. I don't have client case studies yet, so I show you what I can verify: named, public recommendations from design leaders at Amazon (linked to their LinkedIn), my own site held to WCAG 2.2 AA and checked with the same rigour I'd bring to yours, and a fixed price with a clear scope before any work starts. You can check all of it yourself.
What does accessibility actually get me?
Three things: you stop turning away roughly 1 in 4 adults who live with a disability, plus everyone who relies on zoom, captions or a keyboard. You get a clear standard, WCAG 2.2 AA, checked criterion by criterion, so you know what's done and what isn't. And accessible sites are usually faster and easier for search engines to read. It's reach, not a checkbox.
The approach
How I build.
I won't hand you an AI-generated export and disappear. Every build is mine, senior-reviewed, tested, and hardened before it ships. If I wouldn't put it in front of my own users, I won't put it in front of yours.
Build Process
Discovery call → component-level build → manual review against the original brief, not AI output accepted as-is.
Tooling, named honestly
Lovable, Claude Code, UX Pilot, and React for build speed, every line senior-reviewed before it ships.
Handoff & no lock-in
You own the repo, not a black box. Full documentation plus a walkthrough call. No platform lock-in.
How it works
From brief to shipped.
A calm, four-step path with a fixed price agreed up front, no surprises, no scope creep.
- 01
Discover
30-minute scoping call. Project brief, fixed quote, and timeline for approval before we begin.
- 02
Design
Structure and wireframes agreed before a line of code is written. You approve before I build.
- 03
Build
Production-ready code, accessibility verified before handoff.
- 04
Handoff
Live build, accessibility statement, and full codebase. Two revision rounds included.
Proof of work
Real, production code you can open yourself.
Real, production code (React), reviewed for accessibility, functionality, and UX before it ships, and fully yours to keep, move, or extend. No client case studies yet, so here's live work you can inspect: a GOV.UK-pattern "Having a Baby" accessibility prototype, a privacy-first family platform (Vellum), and the Volley landing page + ad-testing framework.
