SASHA BLAIR-GOLDENSOHN
"It’s a basic human right to enter a place like anybody else,” says Sasha Blair-Goldensohn.
This
simple ideal can seem maddeningly out of reach for wheelchair users in
America’s largest and most expensive metropolis.
But for
Blair-Goldensohn, a 48-year-old software engineer and United Spinal member from
New York City, it’s the driving force of his life.
In 2009, Blair-Goldensohn lived in Manhattan’s
Upper West Side and used the subway on the daily commute to his job at Google’s
Chelsea office.
With a
doctorate based in artificial intelligence and natural language processing from
Columbia University, Blair-Goldensohn was working in AI when it was still a
behind-the-scenes tool.
