I am passionate about the accessibility and preservation of information and cultural artifacts and stories, both contemporary and historical. 


I believe that by pairing technology with traditional museum, library, and archival sciences this can be achieved far greater than ever before. 


My hope is that by ensuring access to such information for people regardless of their age, class, race, creed or education, or if it is in a museum to the latest app, we can learn to build a better tomorrow.


I earned my MLIS in 2022 from Simmons University in Boston, MA where I studied Information Science and Technology and it's application to improve information accessibility. I graduated with a Bachelors of the Arts in Anthropology and European Studies from William Smith College in Geneva, NY in 2016.  


I have worked a variety of positions including:

  • Collections Librarian in an educational institution helping with circulation, course reserves, reference questions, and collections development
  • Makerspace Practioner and Attendant helping others plan and make their creative projects and teaching them how to use new tools
  • Technical writer and editor to online help documentation, including video tutorials, and click-thrus for software.  
  • Assistant Archivist in college and research libraries
  • Internship program management 
  • Museum collection cataloging and care
  • Curatorial Assistant 


 All of these work experiences lead me to realized there is a growing need in the museum, library, and archival realms to use, store, and display their records online.

William Nichols Exhibit

In Fall 2016, I was involved in a exhibit refresh at the Custom House Maritime Museum that focused one of their galleries around William Nichols Jr., who was a local of the museums's area, served in the war of 1812 as a privateer, and retired to be the Newburyport Collector of Customs for the United States Government. The effort was a collaboration many years in the making with Nichols's family and I was fortunate enough to play a major role in the design and implementation of the new exhibit.

Internship at the Hungarian National Gallery

In Spring 2015, I studied abroad in Budapest, Hungary at Corvinus University of Budapest under CIEE. The program I was in gave me a chance to work at the Hungarian National Gallery. This museum has one of the most extensive collections of Hungarian Art. It is also located in the building that served as the royal palace in Budapest for many centuries. During my internship, I became the only English Speaking tour guide and gave tours two to three times a week to the public.
