I joined Brock in 2017, as the Associate University Librarian, Research. Prior to joining Brock, I started my academic librarian career at Western University (Western Libraries) as a Research and Instructional Services Librarian in the C.B. “Bud” Johnston Library located in the Richard Ivey School of Business. I took a few different leadership roles in Acting capacities with Western Libraries, and found that I enjoyed leading people, strategic planning, and the collaboration that comes with library administration.
