I have been employed at the U.S. Department of Education since 1987. I am blind and use a computer equipped with a screen reader with speech output to enable me to review and edit the work of my staff.

I am very positive about my employment with the Federal Government. I believe my work is rewarding, and I feel valued by the organization employing me. I do not believe my disability is a barrier to my success on the job."

I am pleased to say that my experiences as an individual with a disability have been positive throughout my Federal career. I am a quadriplegic as a result of a diving accident that occurred when I was 16 years old

...During the 4 years I have been employed at the Office Inspector General at Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), management has provided me with the reasonable accommodations necessary to be successful and productive in my work. I attribute this success to one basic fact-effective communication between management and myself."
