As one of the Learning Librarians for the University of Michigan Library, I work with faculty, GSIs, and students across the university to explore library resources that meet a variety of needs.  I also support the students in The Blavin Scholars program and The Michigan Research and Discovery Scholars program.  In the College of Literature, Sciences, and the Arts, I teach the credit course ALA 217: Fake News, Lies, and Misinformation: How to Sort Fact From Fiction and ALA 260:  Lessons for Life: What Children's Books Teach Us About the Big Questions.  

As the Children's Literature Librarian and the Special Collections Children’s Literature Liaison Curator, I support the research and instructional needs for those faculty, researchers, and students throughout the university community who are studying and working with children's literature at any level and in any department. I manage the Children's Literature Collection on the 3rd Floor of the Hatcher Graduate Library and the Special Collections Library’s multiple children's collections including co-curating the William A. Gosling Pop-up and Movable Books Collection and curating the Hubbard Imaginary Voyages Collection. 

In 2017, I was the recipient of the U-M University Librarian Recognition Award and the ALA Library Instruction Round Table's Librarian Recognition Award. I have written the book Practical Academic Library Instruction: Learner-centered Techniques and value a student focused approach to instruction.
