Sonja Weckenmann

Hi there.

My name is Sonja. I am a IAAP certified Web Accessibility Specialist based in Hamburg, Germany.

After graduating from the University of Fine Arts Münster in 2003, I moved to Hamburg and got in touch with HTML and web accessibility.

Since 2009, the focus of my work has been on accessibility. Beyond my role as a BIK BITV test auditor at DIAS, I am involved in the ongoing development of the BIK BITV test procedure, a German language web accessibility evaluation methodology based on WCAG 2.1 / EN 301 549 (PDF). Sometimes I write about accessibility topics, happy to share my articles here.

In summer you might find me on a multi-day hike in the Italian Alps, the Balkans, the Lake District or wherever it is beautiful (carrying the lightest and least possible amount of gear).
