Biography

I have over 20 years of academic library experience in liaison librarianship, which includes activity in specialized instruction, collection development, reference, outreach & engagement, and research impact. Since joining Syracuse University in 2017, I have built upon this expertise by adding functional responsibilities in research impact and research information management to my core position as the Librarian for the iSchool.
