About

After graduating with my MLIS from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2003, I worked for two years as a science and engineering librarian at California State University, Long Beach. I worked at St. Cloud State University with science and instruction and taught IM2004: Research Strategies. In 2006, I moved to Capella University as Information Literacy Librarian. I started working at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities in 2008. I am the librarian for Writing Studies, the University Honors Program and support Orientation and Undergraduate services. I teach Think Like a Researcher, CSE 1001: First Year Experience and CLA 1002: First Year Experience: Research Spotlight. Learn more about the Library Data and Student Success project.

I love to meet with students about any research or library questions. Take a look and schedule a 30 minute online appointment in zoom.
