Aaron Espinoza

Lead Auditor Β· Blind Tester Β· QA Specialist for assistive technology workflows

DHS Trusted Tester Certified

Aaron is blind and uses JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver as his primary tools for navigating the web. His evaluations capture the real user experience that automated scanners fundamentally cannot β€” the flow, the confusion, and the workarounds disabled users encounter daily.

What automated scans miss

Automated tools catch roughly 30–40% of real-world accessibility issues. The rest require a human with assistive technology.
