About Me

I entered into the library world as a Youth Services Page at the Boise Public Library while in high school. After graduating from high school and enrolling at Albertson College of Idaho, I was employed at the Caldwell Public Library as both page and backup circulation specialist. After receiving a Bachelor's in Chemistry from ACI, I took a short stint as a circulation specialist at the Boise Public Library. I finally settled in with a full-time Webmaster & Youth Services Paraprofessional position at the Ada Community Library, where I still am to this day.

If I were invited to a costume party, I would come dressed as _______ because _______

Dewey (from the Unshelved comic strip)
He's my (fictional) library role model because he:

  1. promotes technology
  2. embraces his geekiness
  3. approaches everything with humor
  4. tells it like it is
  5. underneath it all, loves his job and libraries
