#162 Mark Noonan from roadie to accessibility problem solver

Mark first told us how computers and programming entered his childhood and left him to study musicology instead. We then talked about how working with people with disabilities made him long for some technical solutions to help them. We discussed how he then re-learned web technologies and mustered the courage to apply as a developer. He told us one interview horror story, and we then exchanged tips on how to be better interviewers.
