My Goals and Interests
After working as a writing tutor and editor for a few years, I became interested in pursuing a career in librarianship because I’m passionate about helping people with their research and information needs.
One of my primary career goals is to provide compassionate and equitable reference and instruction services to patrons from all walks of life. I am also driven to develop and implement effective information literacy instruction programs to help students succeed in their academic, personal, and professional lives.
​
My main interests in librarianship include:
-
Academic librarianship
-
Reference services
-
Information literacy instruction
-
Diversity, equity, and inclusion
-
Partnerships between libraries and writing centers
