Neel Shearer - AAC Product Specialist at Techcess

Neel has a long history of working in the world of AAC from working with famous AAC using physics professors through to working with people to understand their communication challenges, translating their needs into the designs of innovative communication technology.

We asked Neel to answer some questions about himself....

Tell us a bit about yourself?
 

'Well,I live on a farm with my wife and three young children who keep me busy!  Over the summer, I have helped my wife set up an 'Eco Campsite' which has been developed with sustainability in mind.  I also love walking, and I recently completed a 'Coast to Coast' challenge, walking from St. Bees, Cumbria to Robin Hood's Bay, North Yorkshire.
 

Why choose a career in Augmentative and Alternative Communication?
 

I seem to have always worked in this or a related industry throughout my career.  I get a lot of satisfaction from helping people to gain access to the basic human right that is communication.
 

What do you hope to achieve in your role as AAC Product Specialist?
 

To help more people find ways to communicate more effectively through using our products. 

As you settle into your new role, who will you be wanting to talk to as you travel around the UK?
 

I will happily talk to anyone, however, in this role I would be really pleased to hear from anyone who would like to explore being able to communicate more effectively using AAC or from speech and language therapists who want to do the same for their clients.
