DIVERSITY CHAMPION AWARD: ACCESSIBILITY CHAMPION
I was a student honoree for the 2020 Diversity Champion: campus accessibility advocate award. The recipients of the Diversity Champion Awards - faculty, staff, students, and a unit (e.g., office, department, school, or lab), who advance a culture of accessibility and inclusive excellence at Georgia Tech, were recognized at the 12th Annual Diversity Symposium Awards in September.
The recipients have demonstrated the following:
