From Hating Computers to Software Development

My name is Juan, and I am a visually impaired developer and entrepreneur.
Growing up, I hated using computers, as I couldn’t see the screen. I also couldn’t access many things in the physical world, especially through a screen. Thanks to the Canadian National Institution for the Blind, I was introduced to Microsoft Assistive Technologies, a complete game changer.
"One of the things that I really like is that every single time Windows gets an update, the assistive technology gets better."
Watch my story below to see how technology changed my life and how Microsoft is helping others by creating technologies that empower more people to work, play, and create.
