Accessibility has to work in practice

I work with digital accessibility because people use digital services with different abilities, technologies, experiences, and needs.

After many years in agencies and the software industry, I started Forlæns to bring accessibility knowledge closer to the decisions that shape digital services.

I advise, communicate, and develop tools that make accessibility concrete in design, code, content, procurement, and maintenance.

The name Forlæns

The Danish word means moving forwards. It describes my approach: make accessibility part of the ongoing work, take concrete steps, and keep the people using the service in view.

What I work on

I work with advice, communication, European collaboration, and my own tools.

Advice and practice

I identify barriers in design, code, content, and workflows and help turn requirements into concrete decisions.

As National Expert for Denmark, I share knowledge, organise activities, and contribute Danish experience to the European collaboration.

How I work

  1. Clear and concreteAdvice should make the next decision clearer without adding another layer of jargon.
  2. Accessibility from the beginningThe best results come when accessibility is part of requirements, design, content, and development from the start.
  3. Solutions that lastThe result must be understandable, maintainable, and useful after the workshop, evaluation, or launch.
