Robin Eastman and Julian Dockhorn founded Versatackle, a platform for online events that centers accessibility, justice, and equity.

They began at the start of 2020, just before a global pandemic changed the way we think about online events permanently. Robin is fundamentally a generalist who's focused on people.

She wants to learn how we can use technology to build human connections and create the world we want to live in. Professionally, she has been an HR leader at Amazon, a case manager for adults with developmental disabilities, and a massage therapist.

Personally, she likes creating art, playing games, and being enthusiastically mediocre at team sports.

In this episode, we discuss the following:

📱What led them to create Versatackle
❤️Why they use a dyslexic-friendly font
🌈Her focus on gender pronouns and how they help in accessibility
