Designing ADA interactive processes that function as intended.
I examine how ADA interactive processes and related accommodation systems operate in practice, and where they structurally break down.
Consulting
I work with institutions to analyze how responsibility, expertise, authority, and risk are structured within their ADA interactive processes and related systems, and to identify what must change for accommodations to be timely, effective, and durable.
Engagements are diagnostic and advisory, focused on institutional design rather than individual case handling.
Speaking
I give talks that clarify how ableism operates in institutions and cultures and why accommodation systems break down, offering analytic frameworks leaders can use to understand and address these failures.
Featured Talks
• We Need to Talk About Ableism
• Structural Ableism in Institutional Practice
• Making the Interactive Process Work
Expertise
I am a philosopher and former professor working at the intersection of disability, ableism, and institutional design. Drawing on 24 years in higher education and my experience navigating failed accommodations, I analyze where ADA interactive processes break down and what institutional effectiveness would require.
