Annie Segarra has spent most of her life being misread. As a child, her physical limitations were seen as laziness. Her neurodivergence went undiagnosed.

Disability is part of every society, yet most systems, from education to employment, still treat it like an exception. Too often, access is reactive. Inclusion comes with conditions.

In a world increasingly run by digital systems, access isn’t a bonus feature, it’s a basic need. From logging into an internal tool to ordering a laptop, small design decisions can either enable independence or quietly shut it down.
