As a metadata analyst librarian, I participate in the management of the descriptive and administrative data which facilitate access to library collections, both digital and physical.

My professional interests include data wrangling, thoughtful automation of data maintenance/creation tasks, computational solutions to library data and collections management questions, open research/data/education advocacy, networked scholarly metadata, and examining information access and privilege through critical/social justice lenses.
