From elementary educator to business executive, and now an academic librarian; service, life-long learning, and contributing to the organizations I belong to is simply part of how I live my life.” She noted interest in the LAGW Fellowship to learn more about 91´«Ã½ governance to “contribute to the 91´«Ã½ in a higher capacity…I am enticed by the idea of having a mentor to navigate the 91´«Ã½ governance meetings. The knowledge gained during these experiences will aid me in serving better the 91´«Ã½.”
