Her expertise was instrumental in developing the Universal Accessibility Strategy and Action Plan, as well as establishing universal accessibility best practices that guided building and grounds accessibility audits across the campus. She consistently brought thoughtful, practical solutions and helped strengthen accessibility considerations in project planning and design reviews. Her contributions have played a significant role in building the Universal Accessibility program and advancing accessibility outcomes for all."

“The GBA Group has led many large scale and complex projects that are mixed use public sector, private sector or a combination thereof. GBA has had the pleasure of working with Marnie for over 20 years. She has provided knowledge and expertise on projects as diverse as the new TOH Ottawa Civic Hospital Campus, the Ottawa International Airport, the Ottawa Convention Centre and Master Planning of Tunney's Pasture and Lebreton Flats. In all cases Marnie has been an invaluable team member. Her knowledge about Universal Accessibility, coupled with her positive and pragmatic attitude has been essential to project successes.

"Marnie at Accessibility Simplified helped us navigate a challenge that many organizations face: how to make outdoor spaces more accessible when there are few established standards to follow. Her vision, knowledge, and practical approach gave us the confidence to set ambitious accessibility goals while respecting the natural character of our conservation areas. What sets Marnie apart is her commitment to creating spaces that welcome everyone. She helped us see accessibility not as a constraint, but as an opportunity to connect more people with nature. Thanks to her guidance, we have made meaningful progress toward creating outdoor experiences that are inclusive, practical, and true to the landscapes we steward."
-Dan Cooper. Director, Conservation Lands and Stewardship, Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA)
“I had the pleasure of working with Accessibility Simplified during my time at NORR. on several PSPC projects within the Parliamentary Precinct. Marnie and her team at Accessibility Simplified brought a depth of accessibility knowledge that extended well beyond identifying requirements. She was a valuable contributor to design discussions, site reviews, and problem-solving, with a unique ability to assess from the perspective of a wide range of abilities and how design decisions could impact them. I particularly appreciated Marnie’s practical, thoughtful approach. She never took a “one-size-fits-all” attitude, instead working collaboratively with the team to find the best solution for each situation. She was generous with her knowledge, approachable, adaptable, and able to clearly explain both the accessibility concern and practical ways to address it. The entire Accessibility Simplified team brings a collaborative and knowledgeable approach, and are a pleasure to work with.”

“Working with Marnie and the team at Accessibility Simplified has exceeded our expectations. The company provided specialist consulting services to our design firm for two major federal projects: the renovation of Place du Portage III (a labyrinthine office complex of the Brutalist era) and RSS Main (a new federal laboratory). With many overlapping codes and policies, we are grateful for Marnie’s guidance to meet or exceed the baseline requirements and also to go beyond; Marnie helps us to achieve new heights in the accessibility of the built environment. We look forward to working with her again.”
-Matt Johnston, Principal at Perkins&Will Architects
