I select all types of materials (print, electronic, and visual) in support of the research and instructional programs on Korean Studies, supervise technical services of Korean materials, and create library resources for the Korean Studies Collection. Also I am in charge of coordinating all cataloging activities for the Library's collections in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.

Prior to coming to Ann Arbor, I worked at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio as Asian Bibliographer for 10 years.
