Expert in accessible communication, Austrian Sign Language, and digital media
Where ÖGS, digital media, and communication come together, new avenues for communication emerge.
Experience, a good understanding of people, and a clear perspective on accessibility form the foundation for this. Content is presented in a way that is easy to understand, visually accessible, and tailored to the target audience—without unnecessary detours and without turning communication into a scientific exercise.
After all, good communication shouldn't depend on how someone communicates, but on whether they actually have something to say.
