Staff Directory

I worked in art museums and architecture libraries before coming to UCLA to support researchers in the humanities and social sciences. As Director of Arts, Music, and Powell Libraries, I manage User Engagement personnel, budgets, and services at the three locations. I am a member of the ACRL Research Planning and Review Committee and the ARLIS/NA Development Committee. I have conducted research on user-centered services and am interested in mentorship and change in libraries. Outside of work, I am a fan of college basketball, exploring the city, and salsa dancing.
