library

I’ve worked in libraries since 2008 and completed my Master’s Degree in Library and Information Science in 2015. I worked as public services librarian and library manager at Mechanics’ Institute before moving into a fundraising role as development & membership manager. I am especially interested in the intersection of technology and public services, particularly in:re archives, research, and library instruction.

writing

My writing on library spaces, functions, and futures has been published in a peer-reviewed journal, at litablog, and in an anthology on library innovation. I also write fiction, refining my craft and my drafts, as well as engaging in the critique process — a challenge that always contributes to my own writerly development in surprising ways.
