Molly Wuebker, OTD, OTR/L, founder and owner of Uncurbed, works as a consultant to the Great Plains ADA Center in her role as the Iowa ADA Liaison. Since receiving her Doctorate of Occupational Therapy from Creighton University in December of 2010, Molly has worked in a variety of settings across the lifespan, all while taking a special interest in accessibility. Early on in her career, Molly used her occupational therapy lens to consult as a design advisor and a source to other diverse perspectives on various design projects. Today, Molly’s cross-disciplinary collaborations include working with industrial designers, architectural engineers, landscape architects, interior designers, user experience designers, and community organizations with the goal of improving access to and participation in meaningful, human experiences.
In addition to her clinical and service work, Molly served as an assistant professor at Drake University’s Occupational Therapy Doctorate Program for six years. During this time, she delivered content on a range of accessibility topics including the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design, Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0/2.1, human factors, universal design, aging-in-place, social justice, co-design and diverse user research, assistive technologies, and community mobility. In order to further her education and professional development as a design advisor, she is currently seeking a certificate as a user experience designer through CareerFoundry.
