About me

I lead qualitative and quantitative research to understand, socialize, and improve the experiences library employees and patrons have with digital products, resources, and services in the library's web presence. I am a member of the Accessibility Steering Committee, the U-M Library Search product team and the Library Design System team to continually improve the value and accessibility of library interfaces, services, resources, and expertise.

I have a Masters of Science Degree in Information and Library Science and a Masters of Fine Arts Degree in Sculpture and New Media. 

Please email me if you have questions about digital accessibility, user experience research, information architecture, or service design.
