Overview

I am the Arts & Humanities Librarian supporting all of the arts and humanities disciplines in UNH's College of Liberal Arts. I also support digital humanities projects. I am also a genealogist with specialties in Maine, New Hampshire, and New England.

My scholarly background is in American literature, and my doctoral work was on Sarah Orne Jewett, the 19th-century short story writer from Maine.

I write on issues regarding librarianship, information literacy, and genealogy.

I have a M.A. and PhD. from University of Connecticut and an MLIS from Simmons.
