I started at CMU in 2019. I make sure that the libraries are open for innovation and accessible to all. I mostly work with software or web technology but my experience as a freelancer and as an artist have given me skills that are applicable to project management and various other situations.
During my term, I would like to see how the council can connect members of the CMU community to the resources that are available to them. I would like to become more attuned to the needs of staff members and be able to make effective changes to assuage their concerns.
A favorite quote: "Veritatem cognoscere ruat cælum" - "To know the truth, let the heavens fall". Fitting for a library, no?
