Jenn Evans
Digital Accessibility Program ManagerJenn joined Deque in March 2023.
Before joining Deque, Jenn spent over 12 years with Google. Since 2017, she held the role of Accessibility Program Manager focusing on release processes, change management, product, testing, and helping teams to build & sustain healthy accessibility programs.
Her passion for accessibility has also been demonstrated through education. Pulling upon her past roles in corporate training and her accessibility passion, she developed and delivered training to grow accessibility awareness within Google. This – along with performing product assessments, heuristic evaluations, surfacing customer issues, creating accessible user support documentation, and starting a demo program – has enabled her to successfully lead teams responsible for creating experiences and products that are accessible and delightful.
Prior to 2017, while holding engineering roles working in both IT Support and Security, she created and led an Accessibility Service team. This team administered training for Google’s support teams on how to use assistive technology. Additionally, Jenn built an internal accommodations methodology to ensure all Googlers were able to experience productivity parity in their day-to-day work.
