As one of the Assistant Directors of Research and Instructional Services, I head up our Research Unit. My unit focuses their efforts on our department statistics and analytics, updating our library website and online tools such as FAQs and research guides, online instruction, outreach templates and scholarly communication. I also am a subject librarian liaison for Business, Marketing, and Management. We don't have a traditional business school at The New School, but the University started incorporating business and entrepreneurship classes into all of their programs, so I get to interact with students and faculty focusing on a variety of topics which is exciting (and keeps me on my toes!).

I also focus efforts of building relationships with other departments across the University to provide partnership and teaching opportunities for our patrons. I'm a research advisor to our Media Smart Citizens group, I have partnered with our Career Services Department to provide generative AI and library database workshops, and I have created a workshop and research guide along with my colleague to benefit our ESL, first generation, and non-traditional students.
