Hi! I'm Bela Gaytán

My pronouns are she/they. I wear many hats in life: founder, instructional designer, DEIA consultant, front-end web developer, project manager, instructor, and coach. Some of the hats you may not know I wear are single mom, multipotentialite, partial polyglot, and plant mama.

Known for my authenticity and vulnerability, I unapologetically disrupt spaces to create change. As a passionate advocate for underrepresented groups, I bring my lived experiences as a neurodivergent, queer, visually and physically disabled Latina to lead conversations at the intersection of Learning & Development and IDEAS:

- Inclusion
- Diversity
- Equity
- Accessibility
- Social Justice

Some cool stuff I’m pretty proud of:

- Presenter at Lesbians Who Tech Summit 2022 and LWT Pride Summit 2023
- Speaker at WordPress Accessibility Day 2022
- My story of perseverance featured on Google Developers’ blog
- Interviewed by Bloomberg News
- Top 100 LGBT+ Future Leader Role Model

I am always seeking new opportunities to contribute my expertise and work for positive change. Contact me to discuss your next project.

Let’s do some good and kick ass together! Much love! 💓
