Hello! I'm a community-driven, student-focused, librarian. I currently am the Associate Dean in the W. Frank Steely Library at Northern Kentucky University.

Regardless of my role, my work life consists of spending a lot of time trying to understand the experiences of our students, champion the work they do outside the classroom, and find ways to leverage their voices and experiences with campus stakeholders. I also am part of the Editorial Team for LibParlor, a blog focused on demystifying the research process for LIS researchers.

Beyond being a librarian, I’ve got lots of hobbies to keep me busy. I play the clarinet, am taking improv classes, and just started to learn how to sew. I also like to bike, drink coffee, read memoirs, embroider, and listen to podcasts. Take a look around my website to learn more about me and the work I do!
