This is the fourth episode in a 6-part series all about Accessibility Changemakers: conversations with persons with disabilities, as well as allies of persons with disabilities, all of whom are working to make the world a more inclusive place through their creative leadership. 

Meet Mel Sutjiadi, is a QTPOC multi-disciplinary creative director, designer, illustrator, developer, and educator who loves to solve problems through design. They are a Registered Graphic Designer (RGD) and they were recently announced as a finalist for the RGD’s ULTRABOLD Awards, celebrating emerging designers under 35 who are making an impact on the design community and beyond. In this conversation, Mel provides practical tips for thinking about and building more accessible digital experiences for as many people as possible. They expand our preconceived ideas about accessibility and share that accessibility needs are not as far removed from ourselves as we might think. Lastly, Mel reminds us of the power we have as designers and that with restrictions comes great design.
