Innovation must be **bold**. It must, at times, get in your face, be an **advocate**, be **accessible**, and make our communities better.

> This is why I became Chief Innovation and **Dream** Officer — to bridge gaps and lay a foundation for future generations.

My personal journey to bridge gaps and listen to the needs of community members has been a **testament** to the **power** of **innovation**. It’s a journey that requires guts and integrity, as people trust you with the unknown. When I first glimpsed the **potential** of **Enabling Technology** for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD/DD), I was compelled to act. I took a leap of **faith**, initially using my own finances to create the first smart home for people with IDD/DD in Washington, DC. This was not about budgetary constraints or gaps in understanding but about a deep-seated belief in the **transformative power** of technology.

Introducing this **innovative concept** was not without its challenges. It was a foreign idea to many, and we had to navigate a firmly grounded traditional system. But I was not alone in this endeavor. **Together** with my **visionary** teammate, Carl Hernandez, and the support of our **community**, we worked tirelessly to ensure that the people we supported could harness the power of technology in a way that was **meaningful** to them. Our shared vision and dedication have brought us far, and we are proud to continue this vital work with our company, [**Vista Supports, LLC**](https://www.linkedin.com/company/vista-supports-llc/?ref=thevoiceofenablingtechnology.pmbofficial.com). We are **united** in our **mission** to **advocate** for a more **inclusive world** and **empower independence** through innovative solutions.

We are excited to see the power of enabling technologies showcased on global platforms. The BBC feature series [#TheHumanComponent](https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/thehumancomponent?ref=thevoiceofenablingtechnology.pmbofficial.com), produced by @[bbcstoryworks](https://www.bbc.com/storyworks?ref=thevoiceofenablingtechnology.pmbofficial.com) in partnership with the @[ConsumerTechnologyAssociation](https://www.cta.tech/?ref=thevoiceofenablingtechnology.pmbofficial.com), highlights [**Xandar Kardian’s**](https://xkcorp.com/?ref=thevoiceofenablingtechnology.pmbofficial.com) passionate commitment to improving lives and ensuring that technology makes sense. They are not just a product but a solution.

> Many technology products will produce the device, but Xandar Kardian wants to hear how it improves lives. That is a **Big Difference**. This changes the game. The beauty of collaboration is still a story to be told. We are proud to have been a part of telling the story. The docuseries underscores the profound impact of the relationship between humans and technology and how, with just a bit of bold innovation, we can ignite life-changing outcomes for people who would not have usually had that opportunity.

We are not just a company, but a **collective** of individuals dedicated to this cause. Our **unwavering commitment** to this cause is **stronger than ever**.
