My role involves liaising to UNI’s social sciences departments and teaching undergraduate general education courses on information literacy, research skills, and AI literacy. I’m a lifelong Iowan, and my goal is to empower students, foster scholarship, and uplift libraries in my state.

I currently write for ACRLog’s first-year academic librarian experience column, and I serve on Iowa ACRL’s Membership Committee. I’m also a member of Beta Phi Mu, the international library and information science honors society. Previously, I served as a 2025 Junior Fellow in the Library of Congress’s Literary Initiatives Office.

I hold a B.S. in Public Health and English from George Washington University and an M.A. in Library & Information Science from the University of Iowa. As an early-career librarian, I am excited to connect with other library professionals–please reach out through LinkedIn or my contact form!
