I advocate for marginalized communities by bridging the information gap. I create programs and provide information-seeking services where community voices are heard and community members are seen. My passion is to make educated and well-informed students and community members. I combine my expertise in working with underserved communities by producing programs, providing resources, and building this accessible space regardless of race, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic level.When tasked with a new challenge, I am determined to find a collaborative solution. I aim to foster a professional, inclusive environment where everyone feels appreciated and valued. In my public libraries and higher education experience, I have worked with diverse populations and assisted them in their journey as lifelong learners. In addition, I have acquired digital outreach skills such as social media marketing and digital design to better serve the greater community.My professional interests are but are not limited to digital outreach, social justice-focused initiatives, young adult services and programming, information literacy, and collection development.
