GET TO KNOW MAD

Hello, friend

I’m Madelynn Sare, but you can call me Mad—most people do!

I’m a digital accessibility and ebook production specialist with a passion for making stories as inclusive as they are compelling. When I graduate from Portland State University’s Master’s in Book Publishing program in June 2025, I’ll have crafted four fully accessible ebooks for Ooligan Press that meet WCAG 2.0 AAA standards—the highest level of accessibility compliance.

At Ooligan, I didn’t just make ebooks; I built a foundation for accessibility in our digital publishing process, ensuring future titles reach as many readers as possible. Because when we prioritize accessibility, everyone wins.

Before grad school, I spent two years as a Marketing Associate at a creative tech startup, Making Co., where I wore a lot of hats—HTML/CSS coding, content creation, community management, project management, email marketing, analytics, and, most importantly, laughing at every joke (even the bad ones).

If you're looking for someone who blends technical know-how, creative problem-solving, and a deep commitment to inclusive design, let’s connect!
