Biography

Sinéad Burke is an educator, author, and the founder and CEO of Tilting the Lens, an accessibility consultancy. Based in Trim, Ireland, she leads the organisation’s strategy and works with clients on stakeholder engagement and accessibility practice. Her work gives fashion teams a practical question: who participates in a design decision, and whose requirements are missing from the brief? Tilting the Lens names Burke on its Costume Institute project, which brought research, design advice, and training into the development of the Met’s Costume Art exhibition. That work connects representation in fashion with the methods used to make and present it.
