Biographical Sketch

In 2008, I started my Master of Science in Library Science and completed the degree in 2009. I joined the faculty of ULM Library in 2017 and began working as a Visiting General Reference Librarian. A few months later, a permanent position came open, and I applied for and was appointed to the General Reference Librarian position. I started my Masters of Public Administration in 2017 and graduated in December of 2021. I serve as a library liaison to the departments in the College of Arts, Education, and Sciences, and am the Coordinator of Public Services for the library. As a librarian for ULM, my primary activities are to help faculty and students with navigating the databases and finding resources, supervise the reference librarians, conduct research, teach, and serve on various committees.
