6. A little bit about me!

Education: Master of Science, Library and Information Science, University of North Texas, 1996. Bachelor of Music, Music History and Literature, Baylor University, 1994. Instrument: violin

What I do:

As you can tell from the items listed above, I keep pretty busy here at SAC! I joined the library faculty in the Fall of 2002 as the Distance Learning Librarian. It is my mission to promote and help support library resources and services to distance education faculty and students. I also enjoy working with my colleagues at the Reference Desk and teaching Library Instruction, as well as building the library's collection in Architecture, Visual Art, and Education. I currently serve on the Library Instruction committee, the Women's History Week committee, and the SAC Online committee. In my spare time, I perform with the Symphony of the Hills in Kerrville, TX.
