Sandra TTG - Assistive Technology Top Picks
As a neurodivergent person herself, Sandra has used countless hard and software products to help assist her with many different tasks over the years. Having to use these has not deterred her at all, in fact, the newspaper article you see if when The European Foundation For Black Women in Business gave Sandra Fox the award for 'social and humanitarian work within the community' for her work with Tapin Computers where she supported the learning of those with disabilities, as she still does now.
In an effort to help indirectly, Sandra has created a list of her recommended products, which include links directly to their site for you to look at and consider. Sandra is a great example of how far you can go as a neurodivergent person, and how these products can support you doing that.
