“Glenda has been a colleague, mentor, and amazing volunteer leader. I've had the good grace to share planning and accessibility professional benchmarking and career pathway engagements with Glenda via my work at IAAP and her work as part of our volunteer leadership.

My world and my accessibility knowledge is better for having the opportunity to learn with and from Glenda.”
