My memorable experience with CAST was the first workshop I was invited to facilitate after joining CAST’s Professional Learning cadre in 2014. Grace Meo invited me to meet her in California to co-present a UDL workshop for the LA Unified School District. It turned out to be a huge event, and we were ushered into a "green room” when we arrived at the venue. Grace and I joked about feeling like celebrities as we waited for our call to the stage. That was my first experience collaborating with CAST. Although I haven’t found myself in any more green rooms since then, I have appreciated opportunities to collaborate on UDL presentations and publications with many more CAST friends and family over the subsequent years. Shout out to Liz Berquist, Allison Posey, David Gordon, David Rose, and Jenna Gravel for being such a great “CAST of characters” to work with.

In 2021, I had the privilege of working with CAST colleagues for six months as part of my Fulbright Scholarship to Boston. They agreed to a day a week with them, working on the review of the UDL Guidelines. While I expected a warm welcome, the entire CAST team's generosity was more than I would have ever expected. In the Covid-prescribed work-from-home mode, I was assigned two CAST colleagues, Jenna Gravel and Nicole Tucker-Smith, whom I now consider friends, to connect with me. We connected online before I arrived in Boston, and once there, we had weekly virtual collaborative meetings to review checkpoints and look at the new Guidelines. What I loved was that Jenna and Nicole were authentic in their conversations with me from the outset and welcomed and valued my perspective. What we created was a learning community of three with branches to the wider CAST community. I remember my welcome at the first CAST staff meeting and the fun Google doc of ""things for Mags to do"" that included invitations to lunches, a visit to the CAST office, and people's hometowns. A conversation with David Rose, which led to a podcast, was also arranged. My experience validated my work at home in Ireland and showed me that the CAST team doesn't just talk UDL. They live it. One of the little nuggets Jenna, Nicole and I discussed was the hope of a UDL International Symposium in Ireland, an idea that came to fruition with the support of Jenna and CAST in 2023.
