Chorus experienced the joy of Minnie as a keynote speaker at our annual Leadership Conference in November 2022. The vibrancy of Minnie’s heartfelt way of sharing her inspirational story created immediate connection with everyone in the audience. At the same time, Minnie effectively weaves into her talk the ongoing issues and societal challenges around accessibility. Minnie has an outstanding ability to engage and educate on just how necessary changes in accessibility are for companies. Minnie has left our leaders with a strong desire to take action to improve accessibility and to be more inclusive to those who need it most. Her presentation was a highlight for many at the conference.
