Hi Mary,
Peter Korn's official title is archetype. In a way that at least suggests
that he deals directly with the development and implementation of access
standards in Amazon products. Far more so than say if he was a VP of
management.
It is not a question of his focus upon what looks good.

Sometimes management leads with their own experience of a disability,
instead of recognizing that inclusion refers to the floor not the person
using the floor.

Given the fact that the email address you have is for Peter corn, the excess
