About

I am a member of the Graduate Library Reference Department and a liaison to the Romance Languages Department. I support the research, teaching and learning in the area of Spanish and Portuguese language and literature. I purchase library materials, teach research skills, work at the Information and Reference Center and provide individual research consultations.

Background

Prior to my appointment at the University of Michigan, I worked as the Modern Languages and Cultures Librarian at the University of Rochester, NY. I have an M.A. in Hispanic Literatures and an M.L.I.S., both from the University of Alberta (Edmonton, Canada). I also completed coursework in Iberian Studies at the University of Warsaw (Poland).
