Hi, I’m Kimberly Shaffer.

I am a designer focused on creating accessible digital experiences through inclusive design practices.

My work centers on accessible UX/UI design, with a focus on color contrast compliance, alt text strategy, heading structure, keyboard navigation, and form usability. I approach design with empathy first. Meeting the diverse needs of users from the very beginning-not as an afterthought is my priority.

This perspective is deeply personal to me, shaped by close family members and friends who have experienced barriers due to visual, auditory, and neurological differences. I see accessibility as more than a checklist; it’s about creating thoughtful, meaningful experiences that truly work for people. Through my work, I aim to support and guide others in designing more inclusively with approaches that are clear, practical, and easy to apply.
