This month in our Employee Spotlight series, we shine the spotlight on Mohammed Laachir. Mohammed began his journey with JAWS seven years ago as a screen reader user and for the past five years he has had a direct impact on features such as FSCompanion and Picture Smart AI.

We chatted with Mohammed to learn how he got started at Vispero, what accomplishment he is most proud of, and what unique talent is a party favorite.
