Loreto Dumitrescu

I am an occupational therapist working for NYC public schools for over 20 years with a passion for assistive technology. On the side, I helped co-found Zero Day Camp, a nonprofit, on a mission to bring computer science and media literacy to youth and educators. We support the local NYC chapter of Makers Making Change and their mission of breaking down barriers to assistive technology by connecting makers, AT users, and disability professionals.

MMC is a passion of mine and I find that the more we get the word out, the more people are empowered to solve needs that exist all around them!
