Education Policy at @VanderbiltU. Worked at @TCFPak & @NOWPDP to ensure accessibility for & inclusion of low-income students & people with disabilities.

[Khalid Sherwani @khalidomarks]

After lockdown, when remote working & online learning became buzzwords, we asked ourselves if internet is even accessible for people with disabilities? Or will they face similar barriers to access they do in physical spaces?

Read this piece I co-wrote.

Happy to be of help to the young & bright students of SESS at @ibakarachi. In our time, being one of the first graduating batches, we lacked mentors who had gone through the same system as us & ultimately found success. Glad that the newer batches have this platform.
