PROFILE
About Me

I coordinate and teach in the library’s information literacy instruction program. I am also the liaison to the School of Education. I am always eager to help students develop their research skills, and to learn to think critically and holistically about the way we create, share, and use information.

I hold a BA in English from East Stroudsburg University and an MSLIS from Drexel University. Before coming to Arcadia, I was the Information Literacy and Outreach librarian at Lycoming College. I am an active member of the Pennsylvania Library Association and the Legislative Liaison on the College & Research Division board. When not on campus, you can find me exploring Philadelphia.
