Who I Am

I specialize in research data management within higher education and nonprofit organizations. I have 20 years of experience in a combination of research data librarianship, science librarianship, and instructional technology, with a focus on small liberal arts colleges and other smaller institutions. My educational background consists of degrees in Molecular Biophysics & Biochemistry from Yale College (BA), and Library and Information Science from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey (MLIS), and I have extensive experience working with researchers in biological and physical sciences, applied sciences, social science, engineering. I am an experienced educator in library research, technologies for teaching and learning, and research computing. 

I am a certified instructor in The Carpentries organization for furthering the programming and computing skills of researchers, and I am a founding member and former executive board member of the New England Software Carpentry Library Consortium (NESCLiC). I am published in JeSLIB, eLife, and College & Research Libraries News, among other places, and my full publication list is at https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6655-7184. I am trained in ethnographic techniques for library program assessment, needs assessment for researchers and institutions, and user experience research.
