I am very excited to announce that Cara Quinn accepted a seat on the Solona Steering Committee. She is talented in so many areas – both non technical and technical.
Cara’s background is mainly in the entertainment industry as a Professional Model, a musician, author, and producer on both the East Coast and the West Coast. In addition to being a passionate entertainment professional, Cara is also heavily involved in the world of virtual reality and gaming as it relates to mobility and orientation in the visually impaired community. She is a game programmer at Draconis Entertainment. Cara leads The AGRIP Project, which makes mainstream games accessible to blind and visually impaired gamers. Cara is also very involved in the Accessibility of the new Apple IPhone 3GS and advocates for accessibility for Mac programs in general.
As a programmer, Cara will have an integral role related to how Solona.net serves the community of blind Mac users and Captcha Solving Solutions related to Mac products.
Cara is a moderator on several online groups and mailing lists:
Visually Impaired Self Defense
I met Cara when I was seeking an Apple – oriented user group where I could announce Solona.net for blind Mac users to solve captchas. Cara kindly gave me permission to post a message on the Mac Visionaries group, and we have maintained frequent contact over time.
Again, thank you, Cara, for working with the Solona SC and sharing your expertise and enthusiasm. Cara’s addition brings the SC up to 4 members including: Steve Sawcyzn, Brandon Bracey, and Gene Asner.

Yay! Cara’s really dedicated and agreeable, she’s a valuable find. She’s been very good to us and to the AGRIP project and the community around it. I’m sure she’ll be good for you too.
Cheers,
