G.L. Wallace is the Executive Director of Seraphim Accessibility and Inclusion Consultants, LLC. GL believes in the importance of the shared work necessary to create both equitable and accessible environments. A PhD in anthropology, G.L. is both an expert in culture and diversity but also diversity of ability, the ways in which ability and disability are understood societally and within organizations and institutions.
