With over 10 years of experience in diversity education and design, Bex has developed digital materials and brand strategies that are compassionate, accessible and inclusive. She also teaches businesses about the benefits of incorporating inclusive best practices into their culture and workflow without sacrificing beautiful design.

Globally, one in four people have difficulty accessing digital content the way it is traditionally designed and built. McKnight Inclusive Design was one of the first in Ontario to focus on closing this gap by prioritizing accessible design, and the first agency to use inclusive design principles as a catalyst for social change.

From a structural standpoint, Bex strongly believes that equity begins at home and intentionally employs and seeks out expertise from people from traditionally marginalized groups (BIPOC, LQBTQ+, and the disabled community) in order to amplify their voices.

Bex designs with empathy, whether it’s systems, processes or content, because the most meaningful world is one we can all access equally.
