About Me
Pronouns: She/Her 

I am one of the Social Science Librarian's at Falvey Library. I attended Villanova University for my first Master's in Psychology from 2018 to 2020, and joined the library as an Access Services coordinator a year later. Thereafter I completed my MLIS at San Jose State University and in 2022 I transitioned to become the Social Science librarian for the Communication, Sociology and Criminology departments, and the College of Professional Studies.
