Who Am I?
I am an enthusiastic learner and librarian building individuals in confidence, motivation, engagement, and desire to be inquisitive lifelong learners.
I am a huge promoter of voice and choice. Involving our learners in their educational journey is key to their success.

"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn."

​
I am filled with passion and compassion. One of my primary goals is to ensure I provide an inclusive and welcoming library for all of my learners in order to equip them with the skills, patience, and passion to reach their professional dreams.
​
"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world."

My goal is to share my knowledge and love of digital tools and information literacy with students while creating inquiry-based curricula through partnering with educators and community members. Encouraging medical students to embrace their inquisitive side as well as provide quality care to patients with confidence is key to their success as health care professionals.
​
"Research is a formalized curiosity. It is poking and prying with a purpose."
-Zora Neale Hurston
​
I have a true love of research. It fills my soul with joy to begin a new research project and share my skills and knowledge with others!
