About Wes

This is one personal brand with one clear center: accessibility.

I am blind, so accessibility is not abstract for me. It shows up in the small moments where something almost works but not quite: friction, missing labels, broken focus, and assumptions that quietly push people out. That lived experience shapes how I notice things, how I explain them, and how I decide what matters most.

I also care deeply about sound, production, and Pro Tools. I kept that work on the site because it is real and important to me, not because I wanted a more impressive list of skills. Accessibility leads because it is the clearest center of gravity. The portfolio supports that. Audio has its own lane under the same roof.

Lived perspective Accessibility work shaped by real blind experience, not just compliance language.
Clear communication A direct style that makes findings, priorities, and tradeoffs easier to understand.
One brand, distinct lanes Accessibility leads, portfolio proves the work, and audio gets its own space without muddying the pitch.

What I actually do

There are a few different ways to work with me, but they come from the same voice.

Accessibility consulting

Manual testing, audits, remediation guidance, and working sessions for teams that need accessibility feedback grounded in actual user experience.

Accessibility portfolio

Case-study style material for hiring managers, collaborators, and clients who want to see how I think, test, and document issues.

Audio work

Mixing, mastering, and workflow support for artists and producers who need direct ears, strong craft, and less wasted motion.

What people get from me

Direct communication, lived experience, and a low tolerance for vague advice.

The accessibility side carries the main brand because it is the clearest throughline in my experience and the part of my work I most want people to understand quickly. The portfolio exists because a resume alone cannot show how I think, what I notice, or how I write my way through a problem.

The audio side stays because it matters to me and because it is real work. I just do not want anyone to have to decode all of that in the first few seconds after they land here.

What people usually value

  • Direct communication without consultant fog
  • Lived accessibility perspective paired with practical testing knowledge
  • Enough range to serve both product work and creative work without pretending they are the same sale

Bottom line

The answer was not hiding parts of myself. It was giving each part the right amount of room.

Accessibility leads. The portfolio shows how I work. Audio stays, but it does not have to speak over everything else.
