I have held many positions in libraries including youth services librarian, teen librarian, and youth services consultant, and am currently the Sustainability Innovation Consultant for the Ramapo Catskill Library System. One of my proudest career accomplishments has been serving on the 2023 Randolph Caldecott Medal Committee. I enjoy reading books with dragons, running marathons, and attempting to keep plants alive.
