I am thrilled to be stepping into a new role at Microsoft as Head of the Trusted Technology Group. This incredible team brings together Accessibility, Digital Safety, Privacy, Responsible AI, Enterprise Resilience, and Responsible Business Practices. Powerhouse of wisdom, passion, and expertise. The work we do matters. To Microsoft, our stakeholders and customers. And to the people who rely on our technology every day. It’s complex, fast, and sometimes unpredictable – but above all, it’s important. Our mission: empowering Microsoft to build trusted technology in the era of AI. January also marked 10 years as Chief Accessibility Officer and 21 years at Microsoft. In every role, one principle has grounded me: – do the right thing. I am humbled and excited to take on this next challenge, staying true to that north star. Don’t worry, I’ll remain deeply engaged with my beloved #accessibility community, while learning so much more from other passionate communities I’m honoured to lead. Walking into this role with gratitude. For the team, partners, and on personal note, my manager Teresa Hutson, and the many that have supported my journey over the decades. Onwards.
