Tiffany Johnson
Tiffany Johnson is a disabled entrepreneur, author, advocate, and founder of Uniqueli MADE Co., a platform dedicated to helping people—especially members of the disabled community—access the resources, support, and information they need to live more independent and empowered lives. Based in Montgomery, Tiffany built her brand from personal experience after discovering major gaps in career services and support resources while completing college. What began in 2013 as a research-based blog created during her final year of school has since evolved into a one-woman business focused on disability-centered advocacy, editing services, creative coaching, and practical guidance in areas such as employment, housing, and personal growth.
Living with spastic diplegia cerebral palsy herself, Tiffany has dedicated her career to making information more accessible and ensuring people feel seen, heard, and supported. Through her writing, content creation, and advocacy work, she challenges performative inclusion and pushes for meaningful accessibility, representation, and leadership opportunities for disabled individuals. She is also the author of He Was My Muse, a work that reflects themes of imagination, emotional resilience, and personal strength. In addition to managing Uniqueli MADE Co., Tiffany personally handles research, content development, community outreach, and direct communication with individuals seeking assistance, reinforcing her deeply hands-on and service-oriented approach.
Tiffany’s background combines advocacy, writing, and technology. She earned a degree in Web Design and Interactive Media from The Art Institute of Pittsburgh-Online Division and later completed a certificate in Disability Studies through University of Pittsburgh, where she focused on accessibility, legislation, and assistive technologies. Over the years, she has also served as a leader with Diversability, helping raise awareness and reshape conversations around disability inclusion. Her advocacy and entrepreneurial work continue to gain recognition, including her selection for the 2026 edition of “A Village of Women” as one of the most influential women representing Alabama.

What do you attribute your success to?
I attribute my success to just being determined and having faith. I feel like if I didn't have the faith that I have, or the determination that I have, I would have given up a long time ago. Because it has been very difficult to keep going, especially when you feel like no one sees what you're doing. And I'm basically a one-woman show, so it gets really difficult, but I never allow myself to stay down too long, because I know that people are helped by what I do. So determination and faith - those are what keep me going.
What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
The best career advice I've ever received is to never give up, even when you feel like people don't see what you're doing, or you feel like you're not reaching anyone. Never give up, because you never know who's watching. That's actually how I got this interview, because I was like, I didn't think people were watching, I didn't think people paid attention. So landing this interview was confirmation that people see what I'm doing, and it's being recognized, even if I can't see it.
What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
If I could give any advice to young women entering my industry, it would be to be unapologetically you and always believe in your dreams! Become completely obsessed, be open to pivot, but always remember your goal and why you started. No one can tell your story better than you.
What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?
One of the biggest challenges in my field is navigating limited institutional resources and building visibility while managing a one-person brand. At the same time, growing recognition and expanding professional networks create valuable opportunities to reach more people, share accessible resources, and make a greater impact in the disability community.
What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?
Honesty, authenticity, respect, and compassion.
