About your instructor

Kelly Thibodeau

Founder + President, Squarely Accessible

If we haven’t met yet, my name is Kelly Thibodeau. I’m the daughter of a disabled mom who had motor and cognitive impairments and I witnessed first-hand the negative impacts of living in a world my mom felt excluded from. I bring together over 25 years of marketing and communications experience and have been involved in creating accessible online web content since 2007, first as a member of a corporate working group, then as a website editor and social media manager. I started Squarely Social in 2018 and have been incorporating accessible web and social media content practices in my work and in my training programs. I’ve led and developed curriculum for universities, organizations and industry groups on digital and social media marketing.
