Welcome! I am the Systems and Discovery Librarian at CSUSB Libraries. I am responsible for overseeing our makerspaces, the Innovation Lab and Studio, and contributing to library systems administration and technology planning. I have a Masters in Library and Information Studies from UCLA and I worked as Arts and Systems Librarian at University of Redlands before joining CSUSB.
My scholarship explores a relational approach to technology librarianship informed by the ethics of care. This perspective shapes our philosophical understanding of technology, the working methods we use, and the impact of technology on both the people who work in libraries and those who use them.
Currently I am involved in user research to understand how the library can contribute to AI literacy at CSUSB and support the research data management needs of faculty scholars across the CSU system.
